HB49

__**Purpose:**__
==== Our bill is about not allowing people to have hand guns in their cars. Since hand guns have been allowed in cars, the crime rate has gone up. People have been killing and/or threatening Police Officers when they get pulled over. There have also been issues where people go on road rages, and kill innocent people. It will also help to keep people from getting arrested and having a loaded gun in their car. Therefore keeping guns out of people’s car will keep people and their community’s safer. ==== __**Eligibility:**__ Citizens of the Unites States who are 21.

__**Terms and benefits:**__
====There have been growing concerns of allowing hand guns to be in cars for many reasons. The issues that are happening are people going on road rages killing and or threatening innocent people, the crime rate has gone up, and sometimes hand guns can get in the hands of the wrong person, such as minors or children. When people go on road rages they use guns that they get out from their cars; therefore it leads to more deaths, and car accidents. The crime rate has also gone up 33%. Allowing the crime rate to go up is not good for the nation or the local community. What causes it to go up is people killing others, using their handguns. For instance if someone has a gun in the car while driving with someone they can kill that person or anyone around them. When guns get in the hands of the wrong person it could be tragic. For an example, a child can get hold to a gun in a car, and accidentally shoot it. That is harming the child and the people around that child. If the gun also ever gets in the hands of an adult who knows how to shoot a gun it could go bad because they would have the potential to kill a lot of people.====

====1) Americans that would be affected by this bill are eighteen years old. Eighteen it is the legal age to own a hand gun, you are an adult, and you can drive. This would also count towards potential immigrants because they are legal, allowed to drive, and own hand guns in the United States. Anyone with a driver’s license would also apply because they are the ones who would hold the hand gun in their car.==== ====2) Penalties: If you have a gun in your car you will have many penalties. You would have your jury by trial by law, but if you are convicted guilty and it has to do with a gun in your car you will go to jail for ten years (depending on the severity of the case). You will go for ten years so that you will learn your lesson in that amount of time in jail, and so that you will do your time for going against the law.==== ====3) Benefits: Allowing this bill will provide a more safe envirnment. For one, it will lower the crime rate. If the crime rate decreases due to this bill, then that just shows why this bill needs to stay in action. Another benefit of this bill will be that communities will be safer. They will be safer because there will not be as many shootings from cars, abductions, or threatened police officers.==== ====4) In order to enforce our bill, we will need groups who are actually interested in the topic of gun safety, and who are committed to ensuring it. The GCC (Gun Control Committee) is an organization that travels around the country to schools, offices, parks, etc. to give speeches, advertisements, and more, to spread the word of gun safety in and out of cars. Other ways to enforce the success of motivating America to stop the growing problem of guns in cars, the president will make public speeches regularly ensuring that all Americans abide to this bill. Celebrities interested in the cause will encourage fans to resolve the problem, and will participate in fundraising concerts, speeches, and signings. The GCC will continue making school visits to teach children about gun safety. ==== 5) If you are a certified police officer in the occupation today, you are allowed to have hand guns in you car because you are given the authority to do so. If you are a retired officer, then you are no longer holding the authority to posses a hand gun in your car. All police officers and FBI workers will have badges with them giving them the permission to keep it in their car. 6) This bill is only prohibiting hand guns from being in cars, not rifles or any other type of hunting guns. This is because if hunters wanted to go hunting, how would they get their guns to the location/ destination without their gun being in their car? The only requirement to this exception is that the rifle/ hunting gun must be in the trunk so that it is out of reach of anyone in body of the car, and that hunter must have an authorized permit. ====7) For our bill we believe that it should be a law for life. By this we mean that it will never go away, and you can never carry a hand gun in your car. By keeping this law for life it will help lower crime rates and keep community’s and people safer, as long as this law is in action.====
