Videos tagged with Nevada Ballot Initiative

This video from the NRA Institute for Legislative Action discusses recent polling data indicating public opposition to stricter gun control measures, particularly bans on "assault weapons." It highlights the NRA's efforts to counter Michael Bloomberg's gun control initiatives, including a Nevada ballot initiative, by educating voters on potential impacts on law-abiding citizens. The segment also addresses claims made by Bloomberg's Everytown Group regarding the NRA's stance on preventing firearms from reaching suspected terrorists, asserting the NRA's commitment to due process for individuals wrongly placed on secret lists.

Senator Tim Kaine's 'Responsible Transfer of Firearms Act' proposes strict liability for firearm transfers, shifting the burden of proof to the transferor to demonstrate reasonable steps were taken to ensure the recipient is not prohibited. This legislation is criticized as unconstitutional and potentially creating a federal felony for every transfer due to vague requirements. Separately, a Nevada ballot initiative backed by Michael Bloomberg aims to create a universal handgun registry, which supporters argue is not a universal background check but a registration scheme.
