Filed in Albany
Please Contact Your
State Legislators Today!
The

Assembly and are awaiting action.
Please take the time to contact your

and its Senate companion, S
1598A, would require

liability for legal firearm
retailers when criminals misuse

On
a positive note, during one of the
state's worst fiscal crises, the NRA
would like to highlight worthwhile
legislation. Assembly
Bill 5427 and Assembly
Bill 6388 and their Senate
companion, S
1152, seek to eliminate the
state's ballistic imaging database (COBIS).
New York taxpayers should be
outraged that over the last decade
nearly 50 million dollars have been
spent on this supposed
crime-fighting tool that has
resulted in ZERO prosecutions.
Call
your lawmakers and urge them to
support A 5427, A 6388 and S 1152
and do away with this wasteful
program TODAY. Also, politely
remind them that many of the
NRA-opposed bills listed above will
cost millions of taxpayer dollars,
and like COBIS, without reducing
crimes.
