I think some reforms may have been passed but nothing major
I know the no fly list restriction was passed
Good.
Can't remember if bump stocks were banned
Though all three regions banned them
@Deleted User Now what measures to pt into the resolution...
Ban on automatic and semi-automatic weapons of course
@Deleted User Do we have federal gun registration?
No
@Deleted User Do we have mandatory background checks?
Yes I believe so not 100% sure
A RESOLUTION
That this house calls on the federal government to institute tighter Gun Control.
Quote
Whereas, current levels of gun crime and violence in Atlasia are the highest in the western world.
Whereas, the federal government has done nothing to combat this crisis.
Resolved, that the Commonwealth of Fremont calls on the federal government to institute tighter gun control measures.
Further Resolved, that such measures should include mandatory background checks on buyers of firearms.
Further Resolved, that such measures should include a federal gun registry with complete retroactivity.
Further Resolved, that such measures should include a complete ban on the manufacture, sale and possession of automatic and semi-automatic firearms.
Further Resolved, that such measures should include a complete ban on the carry of firearms for the purpose of self-defence without a permit.
Such a bill would most likley be unconstitutional
@Deleted User I am calling on the federal government to introduce such measures.
They can deal with constitutional issues.
Meanwhile I'm now drafting a bill to repeal our Gun Reform act.
Main aim is a complete ban on Assault Weapons within Fremont.
manufacture, sale and possession
@Deleted User If I want to pass conflicting legislation do I have to first repeal the conflicting legislation?
Namely, a Fremont Assault Weapons ban
@Deleted User What is the best way to word it.
@Deleted User What If I only want to strike down parts of the original act.
I don't want to get rid of the bump stock ban.

XXX is whatever parts of the act you want it to be
