ACTION ALERT
SB 68 - UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES
Senate Bill 68 is one of those well-intentioned bills that sounds good until you read it. The purpose of the bill is to protect children from internet advertising that could be "harmful to children".
We all agree that children should be protected from the "bad guys" on the internet. But this bill, like many others, has unintended consequences.
If this bill becomes law, NRA Eddie Eagle Gun Safe Programs could become illegal; it could become illegal to market Hunter Education and Hunter Safety programs to anyone under the age of 18; and it could be illegal to market other firearms and hunting related safety programs to anyone under the age of 18 years.
Today's children learn on the internet - they learn what's right, they learn what's wrong and they learn what is safe and what isn't safe. SB 68 in its current form could, and will, make it impossible to deliver the firearm and hunter safety programs we need for our children to be safe and responsible.
As good as it may sound, and as well-intended as it may be, SB 68 is a bad bill, in its current form.
SB 68 will be heard in the Senate Judiciary Committee on Wednesday, May 6, 2015 at 2 pm.
CALL TO ACTION
•Call your Senator and politely ask that SB 68 be amended to ensure that our children can receive much needed firearm and hunter safety education programs and information. Ask them to oppose SB 68 until the Second Amendment, educational and safety rights of our children are protected.
