Iowa: Enhanced Preemption Legislation Passed in Senate Subcommittee

Tuesday, March 12, 2024

Iowa: Enhanced Preemption Legislation Passed in Senate Subcommittee

Today, House File 2556 was passed in subcommittee and expected to be heard in the Senate Judiciary Committee tomorrow, March 13th. This legislation would provide a much-needed enforcement mechanism to Iowa’s existing firearm preemption law. Please contact members of the committee and urge them to SUPPORT HF 2556 by using the Take Action button below.


HF 2556 provides an enforcement mechanism to ensure compliance with the existing firearm preemption law in Iowa. This is done by assigning a monetary value to the damages that occur when political subdivisions are in violation.

Currently, firearm preemption law in Iowa prevents political subdivisions from enacting any ordinance, motion, resolution, policy, or amendment regulating the ownership, possession, and use of a firearm that’s inconsistent with state law. Firearm preemption laws exist to protect citizens' Second Amendment rights and to ensure that there is clarity and consistency across the state regarding the regulation of firearms.

Once again, please contact members of the committee and urge their SUPPORT for HF 2556.
