AN ACT PROHIBITING THE MUNICIPAL REGULATION OF FIREARMS.
SB 234 prohibits municipalities from enacting any local laws or regulations regarding firearms. It directly affects cities and towns by preventing them from creating their own rules about firearm storage, sales, or possession within their jurisdictions. The bill amends Chapter 98 of the general statutes to explicitly ban municipal ordinances related to firearms, ensuring state-level regulation remains the sole authority. This policy change removes local authority to address firearm safety measures through municipal action.
