Urge Speaker Sprowls to Push for Pro-Gun Reforms by clicking here and filling out the letter that is sent to him and other FL Lawmakers.
Tell Speaker Sprowls that you resent the fact that the Florida House operates as a legislative dictatorship whereby committee chairman and leadership are allowed to pick and choose favored and disfavored bills and prevent rank and file representatives from voting on such weighty measures like HB 6001.
Please also let Speaker Sprowls know that you expect his leadership group to oppose HB 25 and to make sure that it is defeated.
HB 6001 would repeal Florida’s onerous ban on self-defense concealed carry on college campuses.

HB 6001 is a good bill, but GOA wants to help make it even better. The way to do that is to not only repeal the carry ban on campus, but to also repeal the carry ban at collegiate athletic events — which in most cases take place on campus.
GOA has spoken with Rep. Sabatini, and he agrees with our assessment. He has committed that if HB 6001 receives a public hearing he will offer an amendment to make HB 6001 into a great bill.
HB 6001 repeals Florida’s onerous and unconstitutional ban on the sale, display and carry of firearms or ammunition when any public official has declared that a state of emergency exists.
Earlier this year, anti-gun Mayor Keith A. James of West Palm Beach declared a state of emergency due to nationwide riots and unrest. That is when the practical effect of F.S. 870.044 was on display for all to see — when the state of emergency was used to force the closure of the Guns and Range Training Center. The business was already suffering due to COVID-19 and this forced closure really harmed the gun store.
Rep. Dan Daley has introduced HB 25 which mandates that you submit to a background check to purchase ammunition.
