Why is GOA not paying attention to this? This is 1000 times more dangerous than the Assault weapons ban.

 

APPLAUDS HOUSE JUDICIARY COMMITTEE FOR REPORTING A BILL TO REPEAL PLCAA TO THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES FOR A VOTE

 

Quote

Washington, D.C., July 21, 2022 - Today, Brady applauds the U.S. House of Representatives Judiciary Committee for favorably reporting the Equal Access to Justice for Victims of Gun Violence Act (H.R. 2814) to the full House of Representatives for a vote. Brady urges the House to pass this important legislation without delay.

Brady President Kris Brown shared:

“Since 2005, PLCAA has been leveraged to deny countless victims and survivors of gun violence their day in court. That is both unjust and unfair; it cannot stand. Congress has a responsibility to repeal this damaging and un-American law, particularly given that President Biden has already stated that this is among his top priorities. The gun industry wrote and pushed this law, it is far past time for Congress to undo that wrong and protect the American people, not gun manufacturers and dealers.”

Brady Chief Counsel and Vice President of Legal Jonathan Lowy shared:

“If the U.S. is to end our gun violence epidemic, we must regulate and hold the gun industry accountable as we do for every industry. Repealing the gun industry’s special protection from civil liability is a critical part of ending this public health crisis. Victims of gun industry negligence should not be treated as second class citizens, and irresponsible gun companies should not be above the law.”

What the DEmorats do not understand is that George Orwells book was a novel not an instruction manual.
