Wisconsin GOP Lawmakers Push to Bar Police from Gun Control Enforcement


Wisconsin Republican lawmakers are pushing legislation to bar police and in-state law enforcement entities from enforcing new gun bans and/or ammunition restrictions.


The Associated Press reports the legislation would “prohibit any state or local government agency from spending taxpayer dollars to confiscate guns or ammunition.”
