It is another busy week in the Minnesota legislature, as two more gun control bills are up in committee at the end of the week.
On Thursday, March 26th, the Senate State and Local Government Committee will hold a hearing on SF 2320, expanding "gun-free" zones. Please contact members of the committee and urge them to OPPOSE SF 2320 by using the TAKE ACTION button below.
SF 2320 allows local government units to ban carrying firearms in buildings they own or lease.
Then on Friday, March 27th, the Senate Judiciary and Public Safety Committee will hold a hearing on SF 4703, a "red flag" expansion bill. Please contact members of the committee and urge them to OPPOSE SF 4703 by using the TAKE ACTION button below.
SF 4703 expands who qualifies to file petitions for extreme risk protective orders (ERPOs / "red flags"), extends the duration of ERPOs, and threatens due process and Second Amendment protections by allowing prolonged disarmament based on vague and subjective standards.
Additionally, all three gun control bills heard in committee on Tuesday, March 23rd, failed along party lines.
HF 3407 would have ended the centuries-old practice of individuals building lawful firearms for personal use without government interference, and HF 4359 re-enacts a previous ban on binary triggers. Both bills failed in the House Public Safety Finance and Policy.
HF 4362 would have prohibited visitors from carrying concealed weapons on college campuses, and failed in the Higher Education Finance and Policy committee.
