Bill > SF2263

This bill allows individuals to carry, transport, or possess dangerous weapons in their privately owned vehicles on state or local government-operated parking lots, provided the weapon remains out of sight and locked inside the vehicle when unoccupied, and is otherwise legal to possess. It also clarifies that rules from the department overseeing foster care will not prevent the lawful carrying, transportation, or possession of firearms in vehicles used to transport children in foster care. Furthermore, the bill redefines "weapons free zones" to specifically refer to schools and public parks, and expands the enhanced penalty for weapons offenses to apply within one thousand feet of these locations, while excluding areas designated for hunting within public parks.
