Too many skeletons to go public.
SB 119 got all references to “assault weapons “ out of Indiana code.Ok, so we've got 1284 (w/ the church stuff added in) and the Laird-law-somewhat-improvement-laws passed. Anything else? (I'm simply not keeping up on this stuff as much as I used to).

OK, I freely admit to being a dummy and my google-fu is bad. Did the governor sign 1284?
It didn’t make it back out of conference committee. I wasn’t good with the last amendment it was assigned. I could see this one coming back next year, in original form it was a solid bill.Oh yeah. I forgot about that one. Did the training bill get hung up in conference committee? I had mixed feelings on that one.
1284 has been signed by both the speaker and president pro tem.OK, I freely admit to being a dummy and my google-fu is bad. Did the governor sign 1284?
Re; Amendment #3 that passed authored by Holdman (R)... who's water is he carrying so all that crap gets added?
Indiana General Assembly, 2019 Session
I was wondering that myself.
From Jim Lucas on FB
...
“The bill’s author Rep. Jim Lucas (R-Seymour) says he could not support the amendment that makes the firearm training a requirement for teachers who chose to carry a weapon. Lucas says this amendment makes HB 1253 a gun control bill.
"You would hate to see it not make it out of the session but I would much rather, again, kill a good bill -- even if its mine -- than see a bad bill progress," Lucas says.”
I truly hate that we were t able to come to an agreement on HB1253. There were 4 amendments attached to it in the Senate, and I accepted 3 of the 4, but the one included gun control language that I would not agree to.
I offered a version that had that language taken out of it, but couldn’t get the Senate to budge.
Better luck next year!

HB 1651 (strengthens protections under Laird Law) had conference committee reports adopted by both House and Senate today. The vote in the House was 93-1. The one no vote? NAGR's own Curt Nisely. Anybody met this clown?
Yes, sad to say it but he's my State rep. I thought he wouldn't be worse than the Dem running against him when he started, but he's pretty low on my expectations by now.
I'd never pull the lever for a D with an F, but this guy needs to go. At least with the usual suspects you know what you get. As long as there is a wide-majority in the House? If a pro-2A Dem (a few exist here in Indiana, I counted 4 in the House) gets on the ballot? Better yet, go out to Crown Hill and dig up a better State Rep
I applaud Rep. Lucas for the courage to pull a good bill that was intentionally amended to be a bad bill.
Senator Holdman was doing someone else's bidding. So what is it Senator Holdman? Why torpedo a good bill? There is a 'R' next to your name?
If Gov. Holcomb signs whats sitting on his desk, IMO we've had a good year. Incremental gains gents, increment gains.
If you or Guy want to move north - we have some great lakes here!
