AI Summary

This bill, titled "Second Amendment Preservation Act," aims to provide additional protections for the right to bear arms in Missouri. The key provisions are as follows: 1. It declares that federal laws, executive orders, or regulations that restrict or prohibit the manufacture, ownership, and use of firearms, firearm accessories, or ammunition within Missouri are considered infringements on the Second Amendment and will be considered null and void in the state. 2. It prohibits any state or local government officials from enforcing or attempting to enforce such federal infringements, and imposes penalties, including permanent ineligibility to serve as a law enforcement officer, for those who do. 3. It allows individuals residing or conducting business in Missouri to bring legal action against law enforcement officers or supervisors who have taken actions that would render them ineligible to serve under this law. 4. It defines "law-abiding citizen" as a person not otherwise precluded by state law from possessing a firearm, excluding those who are not legally present in the United States or Missouri. 5. It includes a severability clause, ensuring that if any part of the law is found invalid, the rest of the provisions can still be enforced.
