Senate Bill 268, introduced by State Senator Martha Scott (D-2), would undermine a citizen’s right to self-defense by imposing onerous storage requirements on Michigan gun owners, rendering firearms useless in self-defense situations.
SB 268 requires households with children to store their guns in locked boxes with trigger locks installed. Violations would be punishable as a misdemeanor offense if a juvenile gains access to the firearm.
The bill has been assigned to the Senate Judiciary Committee but has not been scheduled for a hearing.
Please contact the members of the Senate Judiciary Committee and let them know this bill is not only unnecessary, it is dangerous. Contact information can be found below.

Well, since Sen. Cropsey sits on the board of directors for MCRGO, at least this won't be pushed through without battle.
Conflict is inevitable, combat is a choice!

I'm not from michigan, but your senator is a moron. I hope nobody tries to break into her home and she has to try and get TWO locks off of her gun before the robber gets to her

That's pretty close. She's a Lib Dem from the intercity of Detroit.
Senator Martha Scott
Her list of "Her Legislations" are nothing more than a laundry list of give away programs...

And Detroit is well known for it's election of nut jobs.... Look at their now ex mayor, their State Senator...

people who write this garbage do not deserve to be in office.
You can have my freedom as soon as I'm done with it!!!
You know if we could only give Detroit back to Ohio, we could significantly reduce our crime rate, tax burden, and loose a bunch of anti 2A legislators... sounds like a win win for Michigan...
