What does this measure do?
Supports: Gun Control
Asks whether to keep the 2024 state gun law that adds serial-number rules for homemade ghost guns, lets school officials and doctors seek red-flag orders, sets 21 as the age for semiautomatic rifles, and bans guns in schools and polling places. It costs you nothing new.
