NRA just called me looking for a donation to help defeat HR 45. Anybody know the status on that bill?

According to thomas.gov,

Quote
H.R.45
Title: To provide for the implementation of a system of licensing for purchasers of certain firearms and for a record of sale system for those firearms, and for other purposes.
Sponsor: Rep Rush, Bobby L. [IL-1] (introduced 1/6/2009)      Cosponsors (None)
Latest Major Action: 2/9/2009 Referred to House subcommittee. Status: Referred to the Subcommittee on Crime, Terrorism, and Homeland Security.

it appears to be stuck in subcommittee.

I've been getting panicky emails about it, too.

Stuck in subcommittee, no co-sponsors.   ;/

Somebody wants a chunk of the money being spent on guns, methinks.
"But whether the Constitution really be one thing, or another, this much is certain - that it has either authorized such a government as we have had, or has been powerless to prevent it. In either case, it is unfit to exist."
--Lysander Spooner

I reject your authoritah!
