Los Angeles Repeals Requirements for Contractors to Reveal NRA Ties
Los Angeles City Hall - Michael J Fromholtz
The Los Angeles City Council is repealing a law requiring companies seeking city contracts to disclose any ties to the National Rifle Association (NRA).
This comes weeks after a federal judge blocked the city from enforcing the ordinance.
Council members unanimously voted 12-0 without discussion to repeal the ordinance.
The law required companies vying for city contracts to disclose contracts or sponsorship’s between them or their subsidiaries and the NRA.
In December, U.S. District Judge Stephen Wilson issued a preliminary injunction preventing the law from being enforced.
