Earlier today, the Michigan Senate passed several anti-gun bills that threaten the rights of law-abiding gun owners. These bills will now move to the House where they will await a committee assignment for further consideration.
Senate Bill 224 bans the possession, sale, or transfer of bump stocks and similar devices, imposing stricter regulations than those applied to items covered under the National Firearms Act. This legislation comes despite the U.S. Supreme Court striking down the federal bump stock ban, reaffirming that such policies violate federal law and due process.
Senate Bills 225 and 226 expand “gun-free zones” by prohibiting firearm carry in the Michigan State Capitol Building, the Binsfeld Senate Office Building, and the Anderson House Office Building—except for legislators. While rule changes in recent years have already limited carry in these areas, these bills would enshrine those restrictions into state law and prevent future efforts to restore carry rights.
Senate Bills 331 and 332 target so-called "ghost guns" by severely restricting the ability of law-abiding citizens to build firearms for personal use. These bills impose harsh penalties and sweeping restrictions on the raw materials used in the lawful assembly of firearms.
