Democratic Minnesota senators<\/u><\/a>, holding firm despite only a one-vote majority, successfully passed sweeping gun control legislation in an effort to keep guns out of the hands of people in crisis and criminals.<\/p>\n

The public safety and judiciary finance and policy agreement passed early Tuesday, May 16 by a vote of 69-63, after passing the Senate 34-33 on Friday, May 12.<\/p>\n

The proposals included the controversial “red flag law” that would allow authorities<\/a> to ask courts for “extreme risk protection orders” to temporarily take guns away from people deemed to be an imminent threat to others or themselves.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“What we are going to be providing \u2014 finally \u2014 is a path forward for families and law enforcement who know that someone’s exhibiting signs of crisis and danger,” said Democratic Sen. Rob Latz of St. Louis Park, chairman of the Senate public safety committee. “And it will give them lawful tools to separate people in crisis from the firearms that are around them.”<\/p>\n

The provision is part of a broad public safety budget bill that also contains expanded background checks for gun transfers, with opponents arguing it violates a person\u2019s due process and the Second Amendment of the constitution.<\/p>\n

The extension on background check requires background for private transfers, which excludes family and law enforcement, of pistols and “semi-automatic military-style assault weapons<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

MINNESOTA RECREATIONAL POT BILL GOES TO CONFERENCE COMMITTEE, GOV. WALZ PLEDGES TO SIGN<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Minnesota Governor Tim Waltz is expected to sign the bill into law, after sharing his thoughts on the legislation in a Twitter post on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

“As a veteran, gun-owner, hunter, and dad, I know that basic gun safety isn\u2019t a threat to the Second Amendment. It\u2019s about our first responsibility to our kids: Keeping them safe,” Waltz wrote in a Twitter post. “When the bill reaches my desk, I\u2019m going to sign a red flag law and background checks into law.”<\/p>\n

The bill also includes:\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
