MADISON, WI (WTAQ-WRN) — Democrats at the Capitol are proposing gun safety measures.
Representative Lisa Subeck of Madison proposes a sales tax exemption for gun safes and locks.
“People who are otherwise responsible gun owners, who consider themselves responsible gun owners, who in no way would ever commit a crime are complicit in these crimes if they aren’t locking up their guns,” said Subeck.
Other bills include background checks for all gun sales and extreme risk protection orders – known as red flag laws. None are likely to get a hearing in the Republican-controlled legislature.
