On Tuesday, the Arizona Senate approved HB 2111, the Second Amendment Firearm Freedom Act, sponsored by Representative Leo Biasiucci (R-5) which prohibits state, county, and local governments from using resources to implement or enforce federal actions that are inconsistent with Arizona law regarding the regulation of firearms.
HB 2111 was already passed by the House in February. It will now be sent to Governor Ducey.
“Arizona stands with law-abiding gun owners,” said Representative Biasiucci. “The Second Amendment guarantees vital liberties, just like the First Amendment protects the freedom of speech and the Fourth Amendment prevents unreasonable searches and seizures. If the zealous
gun-grabbers in Washington try to disarm citizens in the name of political posturing, we’re not going to allow it in Arizona.”
