Proposes a constitutional amendment relating to firearms

This bill proposes a constitutional amendment to protect the right to own firearms for defense and civil service duties, while allowing local governments in certain counties and cities to regulate gun possession through their own ordinances. The amendment states that these rights are unalienable and requires strict scrutiny for any restrictions, but it explicitly permits laws that ban guns for convicted violent felons or individuals deemed dangerous due to mental health issues. Local regulations would be limited to specific rules, such as charging fees only to cover permit costs, issuing permits valid for no more than five years, and setting maximum penalties of a $1,000 fine or one year in jail. Additionally, the text exempts active and retired law enforcement officers, judges, and licensed security guards from local restrictions and mandates that local laws recognize permits issued by the holder's county of residence.
