@SIUC_SPS @NadeauDanny @MyersVote and @RepJeffWitte did that. It was blocked in committee on a party line vote.
English
@robdoar Should flip it on them. Let's see a bill with safety funding, mental health support, and free machine guns for registered voters, and then cry foul when they vote against it.
English
Bipartisan public-safety policy does not become stronger when it is stapled to divisive gun-control proposals. It becomes expendable.
6 of these 9 proposals could pass the #mnleg tomorrow. But the goal isn't to have them pass.
The goal is to make Republicans vote against gun control, then pretend they voted against safety.
Campaign mailers trump public safety... again.

Annunciation parents are urging House Republicans to allow a vote on a comprehensive gun safety bill that includes school safety funding, mental health support and bans on assault weapons after a mass shooting in August. fox9.com/news/annunciat…

The House DFL’s procedural sensitivities ring hollow... for some reason. #mnleg
Minnesota House DFL@mnhouseDFL
🚨Minnesota Republicans are literally hiding legislation in a desk drawer to prevent it coming up for a vote. One of Speaker Demuth's deputies just admitted he was "instructed not to report" a bill banning assault weapons/high-capacity magazines that the Senate already passed.
English
@profpennpodcast Have you been watching this session?
Nothing @mnguncaucus said was incorrect
English
Speaker Demuth controls the floor and with only 10 days left in the session, this bill will not come up for a vote. I support organizations and politicians that search for truth, and try to tell the whole story. I reject those that use fear to line their own pockets.
MN Gun Owners Caucus@mnguncaucus
Yesterday, the Minnesota Senate passed SF4067 — the DFL’s massive gun control omnibus bill — by ONE vote. 34-33. This bill includes: ❌ A ban on most semi-automatic firearms ❌ Magazine bans ❌ “Ghost gun” bans ❌ Criminalizing homemade firearms & 3D print files ❌ Ending school carry protections …and more. Now the fight moves to the Minnesota House, where Democrats and Republicans are tied 67-67. That means if we hold the line, WE CAN STOP THIS BILL. 📢 Contact your House member RIGHT NOW: 👉 gunowners.mn/action 💥 Help us finish the fight: 👉 gunowners.mn/join 👉 gunowners.mn/donate The next 2 weeks will decide whether Minnesota becomes the next anti-gun testing ground. Let’s kill this bill. #mnleg #2A
English
They're just making stuff up.
Section 7 of the bill requires a fee for "each certification" and the certification is specific to each "device".
They can charge you whatever fee they want, and apply it to each device you register.

"Why did my case get dismissed?"
"Well, we filed everything on time in the federal electronic CM/ECF system and the judge received the pleading in his inbox, but this particular judge orders a physical copy delivered to his office by 10 am the next day. We did that, but when we delivered the courtesy copy it was three hole punched at the left hand margin in the standard 9/32" hole size and not the oversized 12/32" hole size."
BTW this screen shot is from a 22 page document. I don't know why we still have standing orders like this in 2026.

DOJ's indictment of James Comey is flagrantly unconstitutional and further evidence of why need to abolish prosecutorial immunity and ensure there is a constitutional cause of action against federal officials of all types.
English
No firm guidance. State law includes CO₂/air guns in the “pistol” definition unless it’s a BB (.18 cal or less)—and Byrna rounds are much bigger. So public carry likely requires a MN permit. At home is fine; in public, safe bet is to treat it like a pistol until someone tests it.
English
@LetsFindOut16 I don't know specifically about regarding the Carry laws and the @byrnanation @Robdoar @mnguncaucus But, I do know that byrna.com makes a point that their air cartridges don't expire/have issues like other less-lethal launchers.

Olivia Reingold@Olivia_Reingold
Terrifying—a few ground shaking knocks by my seat at White House Correspondents Dinner, unclear if shooting. I am ok, we are trying to exit now.

Columbine happened half way through the assault-weapons ban.
Focusing on a single instrument of harm does not eliminate the underlying motive or the opportunity to act.
Identifying identifying threats upstream and limiting the ability to act on those threats is a far more effective strategy to prevent harm.
Ilhan Omar@IlhanMN
27 years since the Columbine High School massacre. 27 years of failing to protect our kids. 27 years without common-sense gun laws. I watched it as a student. Now it’s only gotten worse for our kids. We need an assault weapons ban.
English
A prohibited person applying for a permit is a unicorn. The permit system is useless at stopping unlawful carry, so I don't anticipate much effect at all from this bill.
On misuse; police already have access to records not readily available to the public. You sign an authorization of release of DHS data when you apply, and they check internal records of agencies you previously resided in.
If they were to deny solely based on an expunged record, without identifying a lawful prohibitor, that's an easy win on appeal.
English
@robdoar @WalterHudson But those people can also do untrustworthy things with that info as well
English
The game revealed.
@action_liberty wants convicted felon gang-bangers to get their hands on guns, despite it being illegal, so they can lie to conservatives with the absurd claim that preventing that is "anti-gun."
Laugh these clowns out of the room.
English
There’s a practical benefit to allowing agencies access to expunged records showing dismissed cases. I had a client denied a permit to purchase after being arrested for alleged domestic violence. The case was dismissed and later expunged, yet the agency still denied him.” If the agency could have seen the expungement along with the dismissal, it would have avoided unnecessary delay, expense, and frustration.
English
@WalterHudson @marvie2h @action_liberty Criminals running black market guns, straw buys, and stolen pieces aren’t lining up for permits in the first place.
Expunging records in a “shall issue” system doesn’t touch them
Law abiding folks get regulated bad actors keep moving like nothing changed.

Your one word reaction to this announcement is???
Tim Walz@Tim_Walz
Today, we’re launching Small Town PAC. We’re going to show up in small towns, organize in places too many people have given up on, and build power with the folks who call these places home. If Democrats want to win in more places, we’ve got to start showing up in more places.

@robdoar @Sir_SourLemon @DezNutsBeCrazy @Sherlock429 Are ICE agents considered peace officers in Minnesota law?
English
Under MN law, assault with a firearm generally carries a 36-month mandatory minimum sentence (609.222, 609.11).
Minnesota has jurisdiction to prosecute crimes committed within its borders, even by federal officers, but the case may not stay in state court.
A federal officer can remove a state criminal case to federal court under 28 USC 442 by asserting he was acting under color of federal duty and asserting a colorable federal defense.
Despite what you may hear from the federal executive, ICE agents do NOT have absolute immunity.
The relevant doctrine is Supremacy Clause immunity, which is narrower.
The officer must show:
1) He was performing an authorized federal function; and
2) That his conduct was reasonably necessary and proper to that function.
If that showing is made, the prosecution can be dismissed. If not, the case proceeds...just in federal court instead of state court.

@DezNutsBeCrazy @Sherlock429 @robdoar Wrong. Again I have no I shouldn't be responding to non people, but you bots are so frustrating sometimes. Read the laws that we have on the books in Minnesota. If an officer feels that they are being threatened by your vehicle they can shoot you. That's it.
