AI Summary

This bill repeals Section 790.33 of the Florida Statutes, which previously preempted the regulation of firearms and ammunition to the state legislature, preventing local jurisdictions from passing their own regulations. It also amends Section 790.251 to clarify that the protections for keeping legally owned firearms locked in private vehicles in parking lots apply to all public and private employers, including those previously exempt under the preemption law.
