During House floor debate on House Bill 1163, Rep. Jim Walsh, R-Aberdeen, urges support for several amendments aimed at mitigating the bill’s overreach. HB 1163 seeks to impose strict new regulations on law-abiding gun owners, including annual eligibility checks, expanded training requirements, and increased compliance mandates for firearm dealers—while doing nothing to address criminal misuse of firearms. Walsh warns against the bill’s unconstitutional infringement on Second Amendment rights and highlights its bureaucratic overreach. Ultimately, he votes NO on final passage.
