Default Amendments which were approved and disapproved?

Is there a place where where I can overview of which laws were approved and disapproved regaring the gun laws at the House?

I'm watching pcntv right now, but I missed one which was about straw purchases and I don't know what the number was exactly.

Here's the Pensylvania General Assembly website.

http://www.legis.state.pa.us

If you know the bill number or a keyword you can use the search function in the upper right corner. Or you can use the Session Info tab to find roll call votes on the floor of House or Senate or view Committeee Votes and schedules.

The PA site seems to always have issues.

PCNTV is neat, its like watching the history/news/etc and other neat information is displayed when there is nobody in session.

Every strew purchase amendment passed. And there was also one where the PSP will maintain a database of lost and stolen guns for 20 years

Some were to extend the statute of limitations up them from 2 years to 5 years from the time the gun is used in a crime. Some where the reporting of lost and stolen guns. I missed the first part of that but it passed

The Lost and Stolen amendment went down 128-75. In it’s place, an amendment was filed that makes it a crime to falsely report a firearm as stolen, and this amendment passed. The “emergency powers” amendment was also passed, along with a provision to get rid of the ban on carry in state parks. A final vote on the bill will happen tomorrow.
