(More New Laws)…California will have tighter Gun Control laws.

SB 1100 raises the age limit for the purchase of long guns, from 18 to 21 years of age. AB 3129 says anyone convicted of misdemeanor domestic violence going forward will lose his or her right to own a firearm. SB 1200 adds magazines and ammunition to the list of items that can be temporarily confiscated with a gun violence restraining order. SB 1346 explicitly bans Bump stocks, the rapid fire device that can be added to weapons. AB 216 requires elections officials to provide prepaid mail ballots so voters do not have to purchase stamps for their mail in ballots. AB 179 provides a third gender option on Drivers Licenses. Those who do not identify with male or female can now check a nonbinary gender category.
