***AUTHORS SUBJECT TO CHANGE***
AN ACT to repeal 66.0409; and to amend 175.60 (2g) (a) and 895.527 (5) (b) of
the statutes; relating to: eliminating the preemption on local government
regulation of firearms.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Current law preempts a political subdivision from regulating the sale,
purchase, purchase delay, transfer, ownership, use, keeping, possession, bearing,
transportation, licensing, permitting, registration, or taxation of any firearm,
firearm part, ammunition, or knife in a manner that is more stringent than under
state statute. This bill eliminates the preemption so that a political subdivision may
regulate such activity in a manner that is more stringent than under state statute.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do
enact as follows:
SECTION 1. 66.0409 of the statutes is repealed.
SECTION 2. 175.60 (2g) (a) of the statutes is amended to read:
175.60 (2g) (a) A licensee or an out-of-state licensee may carry a concealed
weapon anywhere in this state except as provided by local ordinance or resolution
