REASONS FOR BILL:

This bill would expand petition filing for extreme risk protection orders to medical professionals, family members, and household members. As it stands, ERPO's may only be filed by two law enforcement officials if no reasonable alternatives are presented. It would further prevent individuals with an outstanding risk protection warrant from having possession of or purchasing a firearm until said risk was mitigated and would penalize any such possession.

PROPOSED SUBSTITUTE LANGUAGE:

The substitute language changes the procedure for obtaining a warrant when the applicant is a civilian. After a family member, household member or medical professional obtains an order, the local law enforcement agency is contacted and if they find probable cause they then apply for the warrant. The substitute language also prohibits an individual subject to a Physician Emergency Committal from possessing a firearm for six months, which is the same standard as someone committed voluntarily.

RESPONSE FROM ADMINISTRATION/AGENCY:

State of Connecticut Division of Criminal Justice; recommends substitute language for this bill that would separate the civilian petition process for extreme risk protection orders from the law enforcement petition process. This is stated to protect civilians, who may be put in a difficult situation when they present their findings without necessarily understanding the process. It is stated that the Division wishes that subsection (d) of ยง 29-38c be amended to remove the indefinite period of seizure at the onset and places the onus on the person named to petition for the return of their seized weapons and ammunition. It is also stated that the Division wishes to include a provision in this bill that would prevent an individual who has been issued an extreme risk protection order and has been determined to be reasonably able to acquire firearms and ammunition from acquiring them until that risk has been abated.

State of Connecticut Judicial Branch; expresses concern with parts of the bill. There is concern regarding Section 1, which is stated to prohibit law enforcement officials from making a complaint unless they have determined that no reasonable alternatives exist to protect the subject of the complaint and those around them, but that this restriction does not apply to non-law enforcement officers who could make this complaint. It is also stated that this would create resource issues and that pushing back the effective date would help to address this. The last concern stated is regarding a family member or medical professional and how they report a complaint, and it's questioned if they would be required to complete an investigation as is currently required by the state. It is asked whether the burden of proof would remain on the state even if the state did not file the complaint.

NATURE AND SOURCES OF SUPPORT:

Connecticut Coalition Against Domestic Violence, Director of Public Policy and Communications, Liza Andrews; supports this bill and states that it would allow a family or household member to go directly before a judge and recommend that an individual is a risk to themselves or others and issue an extreme risk protection order. It's further testified that this would be beneficial to victims of abuse who may not want to involve law enforcement in this process for fear of the person they're reporting being arrested.

Madison, Connecticut Resident and Moms Demand Action Member, Andrea Aron; supports this bill and states that this bill would allow a judge to issue an extreme risk protection order, which currently only members of law enforcement are allowed to do. It is also stated that

Page 2 of 11 HB-6355 family members are the first to recognize dangerous warning signs of their distressed loved ones and that this would help prevent these distressed individuals from committing firearm suicide or homicide.

Sandy Hook Promise, Managing Director, Mark Barden; supports this bill and states that it would allow family members to file petitions for orders to temporarily remove a firearm from an individual who is exhibiting concerning behavior. It is also stated that this would enable families to protect themselves and their loved ones from gun violence.

Bethel CT, Resident, Erin Bond; supports this bill and states her personal account of a member of their family who was a victim of gun violence. A week prior to her niece being killed, the niece called 911 and reported her attacker was not stable & had access to a gun. If someone had taken the threat seriously, the gun could have been confiscated and her life would have been saved.

CT Students for a Dream, Camila Bortoletto; supports this bill stating that expanding the number of people who can submit a petition for extreme risk protection orders would open access to groups who may not feel as comfortable reporting an incident to law enforcement.

The Coalition to Stop Gun Violence, Policy Staff Attorney Tim Carey and Lisa Geller State Affairs Manager; support this bill and state that this bill would fill current gaps in extreme risk protection law and would prevent gun violence before it occurs.

March for Our Lives CT State Board Members Taylor Sisson, Elizabeth Casolo, Sarah Cohen, and Ryan Cudworth; support this bill stating that it would expand risk protection orders and that this would save the lives of people at risk.

NARAL Pro-Choice Connecticut, State Director, Liz Gustafan MSW; supports this bill stating that individuals who fear gun violence may not be able to effectively protect themselves under the current statute regarding extreme risk protection orders. It's further stated that by expanding this statute it will allow people to have more autonomy over their own protection.

Connecticut Protective Moms, Founder, Betsy Keller; supports this bill and states that it will help to protect victims of domestic violence by allowing another means to file a petition for an extreme risk protection order.

Everytown for Gun Safety, Fellow Member, Jennifer Lawlor; supports this bill and gives account of a personal experience when her daughter was a victim of gun violence after reporting troubling behavior of someone her daughter knew. It is also stated that if extreme risk protection order law was expanded to include non-law enforcement officials in the petition process that there would have been an extra mechanism to remove the firearm from the perpetrator.

Newtown Action Alliance, Chairwoman, Po Murray; supports this bill stating that it would create a last-resort mechanism from removing firearms or limiting access to firearms from at risk individuals. It is also stated that enacting this with due process protections will give family and household members as well as health care professionals the ability to proactively save the lives of those at risk of harm.

Page 3 of 11 HB-6355 CT Against Gun Violence, Director of Communications, Jonathan Perloe, Community Outreach Coordinator, Janet Rice, Executive Director, Jeremy Stein, and Director of Outreach Terra Volpe support this bill and states that it would expand extreme risk protection order petitioning to family members and medical professionals. It is stated that family members can detect troubling behavior that law enforcement may not be able to, which will allow reports to be filed long after the acquisition of a firearm. It is also stated that a judge would still need to find probable cause to enact an ERPO and that due process remains in the case of a false report.

Guilford CT, Resident, Carol Rizzolo supports this bill and states a personal account of an interaction where a gun was an intimidating factor in a sexual assault that the testifier was victim to. It is also stated that the expansion of reporting for extreme risk protection orders may have led to the perpetrator being reported and them losing the firearm that served as an intimidating factor during this assault.

Sandy Hook CT, Resident, Alex Villamil; supports this bill and gives personal account of when gun violence affected their life. It is stated that expanded ERPO laws may have prevented the incident if a family member had a mechanism to report the perpetrator.

Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America, Survivor Lead, Michele Voigt; supports this bill and gives a personal account of when gun violence affected their life. It is stated that if a family member had been able to report the incident testified on that it may have saved the life of the subject of the story.

Deep River CT, Nurse and Clinical Social Worker, Claire M. Walsh; supports this bill and states that in their experience someone that suffers from depression is more likely to take their own life if they have access to firearms. It is stated that allowing family members and medical professionals to petition the court for an ERPO is important for protecting those at risk.

National Association of Social Workers CT, Intern and MSW Student, Christina Cowan; supports this bill and cites a study that shows that for every 10 to 20 firearm seizures in relation to ERPO's that one suicide is prevented. It is stated that including people who directly see an individual's mental health as those who can report an imminent risk is important in order to continue to prevent gun deaths.

NATURE AND SOURCES OF OPPOSITION:

Connecticut Citizens Defense League, Legislative Coordinator, Ray Bevis, and Executive Member, Scott Wilson; oppose this bill and state the current extreme risk protection order law is enough and that this bill may have the unintended consequence of increasing firearm related suicides. It is also stated that adding medical professionals to the list of petitioners who can directly request an ERPO may deter individuals from seeking treatment.

Friends of Connecticut Sportsmen, President, Keith Cagle; opposes this bill stating that the expansion of extreme risk protection orders may violate due process and that the current legislation and threshold for moving forward with a petition is enough.

Southington CT, Resident, Lukasz Jura; opposes this bill stating concern that this legislation may lead to false reports and gives personal account of an experience related to this bill.

National Rifle Association Institute for Legislative Action, State Director, Lauren E. LePage Esq.; opposes this bill stating that there is already law in place in Connecticut that provides a mechanism to remove a legally acquired firearm from an individual deemed dangerous and that expanding the list may lead to due process violations.

A Better Way 2A, Owner, Jordan Levine; opposes this bill stating that expanding "red flag" laws will lead to more encounters with police and may create due process issues regarding false reporting. Personal experience with mental health treatment was shared and seeking psychiatric treatment may have been reconsidered if this bill had been in place during that time with the fear that their firearms would be seized.

Connecticut Republican Assembly, President, Anne Manusky; opposes this bill stating that it would violate the second amendment rights of gun owners and that the laws that currently exist should be applied judiciously.

Southington Sportsmen's Association and Bell City Rifle Club, CCDL Liaison, Warren Stevens; opposes this bill stating that it would violate 1st, 2nd, 4th, and 5th, amendment rights, in part by violating due process. It is also stated that the currently ERPO statute is working as it should and that this bill would put the burden of proof on the accused.
