Pink AR15
from Rep. Matt Shea
Republican
Dear friends and neighbors,
It appears that gun dealers across the state have received this notice (see it below) from the Washington State Patrol. If you or someone you know has received this letter, please note it my understanding this is only a formal request, but there is no legal requirement to reply.
Nonetheless, I’m very concerned with this apparent overreach of the Washington State Patrol. I have been in contact with House Republican leadership to discuss this issue. We are on top of the situation and will be sending a letter to State Patrol Chief John Batiste to request a formal response to our concerns.
I’ll keep you posted.
Sincerely,
Matt Shea
State Representative
4th Legislative District
Phone: (360) 786-7984
