Maddy summaryThis bill proposes a constitutional amendment to protect the right to own firearms for self-defense and to aid civil authorities, while explicitly allowing local governments in certain counties and cities to regulate firearms through their own ordinances. The amendment mandates that any restrictions on gun rights must meet a high legal standard known as strict scrutiny, though it maintains that convicted felons and individuals deemed a danger due to mental health issues can still be prohibited from possessing guns. Local jurisdictions would be permitted to issue permits with fees limited to covering administrative costs, set permit validity to a maximum of five years, and impose penalties of up to a $1,000 fine or one year in jail for violations. Additionally, the text exempts active and retired law enforcement, judges, and licensed security guards from local permit requirements and allows for the seizure of firearms from individuals legally barred from owning them.
