Tomorrow, Tuesday, February 10, the Senate Local Government Committee is scheduled to hear SB 278, a bill that will strengthen Ohio’s firearm preemption law by holding local governments accountable and helping ensure they do not overreach, to the detriment of law-abiding sportsmen and women.
Use the Take Action button to email committee members and ask them to vote “Yes” on SB 278.
Why SB 278 Matters to Ohio Sportsmen
SB 278 allows individuals to seek punitive or exemplary damages against municipalities that knowingly enact illegal local gun control measures. This critical legislation will:
- Hold Cities Accountable: Deter municipalities from passing ordinances that violate state law.
- Ensure Consistent Firearm Regulations: Prevent a “patchwork” of confusing local laws across the state.
- Level the Playing Field: Give average citizens the power to challenge well-funded municipal legal teams.
