Your Committee has amended this measure by replacing

adopting suggestions from the Legislative Reference Bureau that
they compile a summary of other jurisdictions that have mandatory
insurance laws that have been enacted or may be enacted soon and
any other current laws that impose other financial
responsibilities on firearms. This measure has also been amended
