The proposed bill, known as the Keep Them Safe Act, aims to establish guidelines and civil immunity for the voluntary storage of firearms in Ohio. It introduces a new section, 2923.26, which defines key terms such as "legal cause," "federally licensed firearms dealer," and "law enforcement agency." The bill allows individuals who hold legal title to a firearm to store it with a federally licensed dealer or a law enforcement agency, provided they meet certain conditions. It also outlines the responsibilities of dealers and agencies regarding the acceptance, storage, and return of firearms, emphasizing compliance with federal laws and the establishment of their own policies.

Additionally, the bill provides civil immunity to federally licensed firearms dealers and law enforcement agencies for any injuries or losses related to the storage or return of firearms, unless they act with malicious intent. It ensures that no entity is required to accept firearms for storage and protects the confidentiality of any information submitted during the storage application process. If a court finds that a dealer or agency wrongfully withheld a firearm, it mandates the award of reasonable costs and attorney's fees to the aggrieved party.
