The Pennsylvania House Judiciary Committee has advanced four gun control bills, including measures on undetectable firearms, universal background checks, red flag confiscation orders, and Glock switch bans. These bills, passed along party lines with all Democrats voting in favor and Republicans opposed, are moving to the full House floor. The committee also considered and rejected an amendment for constitutional carry and did not advance a bill limiting handgun purchases to one per month due to a single Democratic dissenting vote.

Frequently Asked Questions

What gun control bills have advanced in Pennsylvania?

The Pennsylvania House Judiciary Committee has passed four gun control bills: HB 1099 (undetectable firearms), HB 1593 (universal background checks), HB 1859 (red flag confiscation orders), and HB 11866 (Glock switch ban). These bills are now moving to the full House floor for a vote.

What is the 'red flag' bill in Pennsylvania proposing?

HB 1859, the proposed 'red flag' bill, would allow for ex parte secret proceedings. This means orders to confiscate firearms could be granted based on evidence from only one party, without the firearm owner being present or aware, before they have a chance to present their defense.

What happened to the bill limiting handgun purchases in Pennsylvania?

HB 837, which aimed to limit handgun purchases to one per month, was not considered by the House Judiciary Committee. This occurred because a single Democratic representative, Dan Miller, voted against its consideration, preventing the bill from moving forward.

How did the Pennsylvania House Judiciary Committee vote on gun control bills?

The Pennsylvania House Judiciary Committee voted strictly along party lines. All Democratic committee members voted in favor of the gun control bills, while all Republican committee members voted in opposition to them.
