A measure by Assemblymember Anthony Portantino, who represents part of Monrovia, to expand on last year’s ban on openly carried handguns, has passed the Assembly Public Safety Committee on a vote of 4 to 2. AB 1527 would outlaw the "open carry" of unloaded long guns – such as rifles or shotguns. According to Portantino, AB 1527 has the support of the California Police Chiefs Association, the Peace Officers Research Association of California, the California Chapters of the Brady Campaign and the Legal Community against Violence.
