HJR 17-OPPOSE H.R. 45 IN CONGRESS 1:52:55 PM CHAIR FRENCH announced the consideration of HJR 17. [Before the committee was CSHJR 17(JUD).] He noted the companion Senate resolution in the bill packet. PETE FELLMAN, Staff to Representative John Harris said HJR 17 urges Congress to reject H.R. 45, which is known as the Blair Holt's Firearm Licensing and Record of Sale Act of 2009. The sponsor feels the federal legislation is out of step with Alaskan values. The resolution is self defining, he said, and offered to provide a brief summary or answer questions. CHAIR FRENCH found no questions from the committee. He noted that his office reviewed the resolution and he believes there was an agreement with the sponsor to change one word of the resolution. On page 2, line 4, the second "Whereas" clause currently states that "under H.R. 45, a firearm owner could be charged with a federal felony based on the actions of a juvenile who might gain access to the firearm;" and his office believes it will be a misdemeanor. CHAIR FRENCH moved Amendment 1 as follows: AMENDMENT 1 Page 2, line 4 following "charged with a": Delete "felony" Insert "misdemeanor" Finding no objection, he announced that Amendment 1 carries. 1:55:47 PM SENATOR THERRIAULT asked Mr. Fellman what modifications were made in the House Judiciary Committee. MR. FELLMAN explained that the second "WHEREAS" was inserted on page 1, lines 6-8. CHAIR FRENCH closed public testimony. SENATOR THERRIAULT moved to report the committee's substitute for HJR 17 from committee with individual recommendations and attached fiscal note. There being no objection, SCS CSHJR 17(JUD) moved from the Senate Judiciary Standing Committee.
