House Republican Conference Chairwoman Elise Stefanik asked Gov. Hochul Wednesday to delay the implementation of a new Empire State law that would tax and create a state-level purchase database of gun owners.
The new state office would also assume responsibility for sending background checks on gun and ammunition sales to the FBI’s National Instant Criminal Background Check System .“This state order creates a duplicative office run by the State Police to act as a middleman, transferring background checks from registered firearm dealers to the NICS on the dealer’s behalf,” Stefanik told Hochul. “The sole purpose of this office will be collecting fees and increasing bureaucratic red tape.
Salesman Paul Fraker shows off weapons for sale at Coliseum Gun Traders Ltd. in Uniondale, New York on September 25, 2020.“As governor, you have continuously attacked the Second Amendment rights of New Yorkers,” Stefanik added. “From attempting to implement concealed carry restrictions to shutting down gun shows across the State, your blatant attacks on law-abiding gun owners are clear.”
“Clearly, this disastrous policy was motivated by gun grabbing anti-Second Amendment radicals in Albany rather than by commonsense and the public safety of our Upstate New York communities,” she said. “Far Left Albany Democrats have once again assaulted our Constitutional right to bear arms and I will do everything in my power to stop their attacks on the sacred Second Amendment rights of New Yorkers.
