Missouri’s HB 436, known as the Second Amendment Preservation Act, was first passed by the state’s House in April with a 115 to 42 vote, was amended and passed by the Senate during the beginning of May with a 26 to 6 vote, and was then given back to and passed again by the House last week with a 116 to 38 vote.
Because Missouri’s entire legislature proved that they are in favor of protecting citizens’ natural right to self-defense and are against federal gun control threats, the bill is now on Governor Jay Nixon’s desk for a potential vote.
“The bill establishes the Second Amendment Preservation Act which specifies that although several states have granted supremacy to laws and treaties under the powers granted under the United States Constitution, the supremacy does not apply to the federal laws that restrict or prohibit the manufacture, ownership, and use of firearms, firearm accessories, or ammunition exclusively within the state except to the extent that they are necessary for the regulation of the land and naval forces of the Unites States Armed Forces,” reads the bill.
If signed into law by the Governor, HB 436 would not only block federal measures relating to firearm control that are anticipating on being passed, but it would also block all past and future ones as well.
