HB24-1348: This bill would require any firearm left in a vehicle to be stored in a locked, hard-sided case out of plain view or in a locked trunk. Promoting this measure after killing a bill that would’ve increased the penalty for theft of firearms proves that anti-gun politicians intend to treat victims as criminals and criminals as victims.
