Pennsylvania: “Lost or Stolen” Ordinance Passed in Borough of West Mifflin

Thursday, December 17, 2009

Please Stand Up and Make Your Voice Heard!

On Tuesday, December 15, by a vote of 6-1, the Borough Council of West Mifflin passed an ordinance that will require gun-owners to report lost or stolen firearms within a 72-hour period or face fines and possible imprisonment.  Councilman Richard Olasz was the sole dissenting vote.

This law not only violates Pennsylvania
’s state preemption laws, but also turns law-abiding gun owners -- who have already been victimized by theft -- into criminals.

Please contact the members of the Borough Council of West Mifflin TODAY and respectfully voice your opposition to the passage of this unwarranted, unjust and illegal ordinance.  Contact information can be found below.
