Washington: “Gun-Free Zone” Bill on Senate Floor

On January 13th, the Washington Senate pulled Senate Bill 5434 from the Senate Rules Committee back to the floor, where it can receive a vote at any time. SB 5434 was retained as a carry-over bill from 2019 that would expand “gun-free zones.”

Washington: Urge Senator to Oppose SB 5434 Gun Free Zones


Senate Bill 5434 [ https://app.leg.wa.gov/billsummary?BillNumber=5434&Initiative=false&Year=2019 ], sponsored by Senator Claire Wilson (D-30), would increase prohibited areas where law-abiding citizens cannot possess firearms, including CPL holders carrying for self-defense. The bill extended “gun-free zones” to public parks, libraries, and child care centers before being amended to only apply to child care centers. Anti-gun Senators can easily amend the bill to add more areas when it comes up for vote. Your voice is needed in this critical fight for our freedom and safety.


Please Take Action and pass this on.

Thanks for posting and alerting us to this bill. 

I clicked on the links, edited out most of the pre-canned message, wrote my own short, straight, polite message... and the site would not let me sign it.

 I finally clicked on submit but have no idea what went out nor if it had my name attached.  Not sure but maybe if you don't use their message they don't let you use their contact to the Senator.  I preferred my words over the canned boilerplate.   Will contact the senator on my own.
