This bill bans the distribution, manufacture, and sale of a laundry list of firearms deemed to be “assault weapons.” For Washington, “assault weapons” means everything from semi-automatic rifles that are too long to the wrong type of grip. CPAC supports the founders’ belief in the Second Amendment, opposes this extensive infringement on Second Amendment freedoms, and opposed this bill. The House passed this bill on April 19, 2023 by a vote of 56-42 and the bill later became law.
