The governor is expected to veto the legislation as he has previously argued for more restrictive gun laws.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf signed into law and deemed constitutional, the legislation would prevent Wisconsin law enforcement officials from confiscating guns from those convicted of misdemeanor domestic violence offenses, according to nonpartisan lawyers for the Legislature. That\u2019s because there is no state law that corresponds with a federal law allowing guns to be taken from such offenders,\u201d the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jsonline.com\/story\/news\/politics\/2021\/06\/23\/wisconsin-senate-poised-enact-2nd-amendment-sanctuary-legislation-second-guns\/5309767001\/\">Milwaukee Journal Sentinel<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n<p>The Wisconsin legislature\u2019s push for more Second Amendment protections comes as the leaders of several states have already declared their states to be \u201cSecond Amendment sanctuaries.\u201d Republican Texas Governor Greg Abbott declared Texas\u2019 commitment to protecting gun rights in April. Last week, nine members of Texas\u2019 congressional delegation wrote to Abbott urging him to take action to protect Texans from several planned regulations the Biden administration is drafting to restrict gun rights.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs you know, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) under President Biden is aggressively targeting gun owners, including our fellow Texans,\u201d the lawmakers <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/texas-lawmakers-call-on-gov-greg-abbott-to-fight-bidens-gun-control-agenda-would-make-felons-of-countless-honest-texans\">wrote<\/a>. \u201cWorst of all, the Biden Administration is carrying out these attacks on our Second Amendment rights through executive actions rather than legislatively, where it would be difficult or impossible to pass them. We write to offer our full support for any efforts you can take to ensure that President Biden\u2019s destructive agenda does not infringe on Texans\u2019 Second Amendment rights.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cATF\u2019s proposed rule entitled Definition of \u2018Frame or Receiver\u2019 and Identification of Firearms would take a significant step toward a national gun registry by requiring Federal Firearms License (FFL) dealers to permanently maintain personal gun owner information and records of firearm transfer information including makes, models, and serial numbers,\u201d the letter continued. \u201cThis proposed rule would also expand the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) to apply to gun parts\u2014not just to the frame or receiver of a firearm \u2014 contradicting statute and the clear intent of Congress with its repeal of the Federal Firearms Act\u2019s regulation of gun parts and enactment of the Gun Control Act to regulate a single firearm part.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFurther, ATF\u2019s latest Proposed Rule entitled Factoring Criteria for Firearms With Attached \u2018Stabilizing Braces\u2019 risks banning roughly 40 million pistols and AR15-style firearms by reversing over eight years of interpretive guidance and would do so without an act of Congress,\u201d the letter said. \u201cThe ATF\u2019s proposed rule would intentionally redefine these firearms to be short-barreled rifles, thus allowing the ATF to charge Americans with a federal felony by simply possessing them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A number of other governors have\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/multiple-governors-signal-they-wont-put-up-with-bidens-second-amendment-attack-out-of-control\">signaled<\/a>\u00a0that they plan to resist Biden administration efforts to unilaterally enact stricter gun control laws.
