Sacramento, CA – Senate Bills 2 and 368, authored by Senator Anthony J. Portantino (D – Burbank), passed the Assembly Public Safety Committee today. SB 2, sponsored by Governor Newsom and Attorney General Bonta, would implement significant improvements to California’s existing concealed-carry weapon (CCW) laws. SB 368 is a common sense and comprehensive gun safety effort that would expand and strengthen firearm ownership prohibition laws and create additional responsibilities for commercial gun stores.
