Gas Tax and Ammo Background Checks Start Today In California



The People's Republic of Commiefornia has a number of new laws going into effect today. As I see what the Democrats are doing to the state, the more glad I am that I left.

Two of the most heinous laws are:
California Gas Tax 
The California gas tax will increase 5.6 cents per gallon Monday. It is part of a Senate Bill passed by the Legislature and signed by then Gov. Jerry Brown in 2017. At the time, gas taxes went up 12 cents along with additional registration fees.  
California drivers were paying an average $3.75 per gallon as of late June, far above the national average of $2.71 calculated by AAA. The gas tax will increase to 47.3 cents a gallon July 1, according to the state Board of Equalization, and continue to increase indefinitely starting next year to keep up with the California Consumer Price Index.
The money from the increase is supposed to go to roads and bridges along with bicycle and pedestrian projects.   

Gun Ammunition Rules 
California will tighten its already strict firearms laws by requiring background checks for anyone buying ammunition and barring ammo sales except through licensed dealers. Gun owners already in the state's databases will have to pay a $1 fee each time they buy bullets or shotgun shells, while others can buy longer term licenses. Dealers have seen a spike in sales as the state prepares to implement the restrictions imposed by voters in 2016. Opponents are suing to block the restrictions, arguing that they will mainly harm law-abiding owners.
