AN ACT relating to local firearms control ordinances.

HB 329 primarily creates confidential peer support counseling programs for public safety employees (like police and firefighters) who experience traumatic incidents. It establishes strict confidentiality rules for these sessions, allowing disclosure only in specific cases like threats of suicide or child abuse. The bill also contains a section (Section 1) that restricts local governments from regulating firearms - a provision that appears disconnected from the peer support focus and contradicts the bill's title. This section would prohibit cities or counties from enacting firearm ordinances and requires repeal of existing such rules. The bill's actual substance centers on the peer support program, not firearms control as the title suggests.
