- Author: Asm. Lopez (D-19) & Asm. Vainieri-Huttle (D-37)
Summary: AB 4898 would allow for warrantless searches of gun owners homes for issues that they may have in ernest tried to prevent. AB 4898 compels law enforcement to “check up” on gun owners after a firearm is unlawfully obtained by someone under the age of 18. This mandate is rife for abuse by law enforcement looking for an excuse to arrest, harass, or fine someone.
