The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 234, seeks to amend chapter 98 of the general statutes by inserting language that explicitly prohibits municipalities from adopting any ordinances or regulations related to the regulation of firearms. This legislative change aims to centralize firearm regulation at the state level, thereby preventing local governments from enacting their own rules concerning firearms.

The bill is introduced by Senator Sampson and Representatives Dauphinais and Mastrofrancesco, and it reflects a broader intent to standardize firearm laws across the state. By removing the ability of municipalities to regulate firearms, the bill aims to create uniformity in firearm legislation, ensuring that all residents are subject to the same rules regardless of their locality.
