Governor Mike Parson signs HB 85, Establishing Second Amendment Preservation Act
HB 85 protects Missouri citizens right to bear arms
On Saturday, Governor Mike Parson signed HB 85 into law, which established the Second Amendment Preservation Act in Missouri.
This law prohibits state and local cooperation with federal officials that attempt to enforce any laws, rules, orders, or actions that violate the Second Amendment rights of Missourians.
The bill also acknowledges that the right to keep and bear arms is fundamental and inalienable.
“Under HB 85, any person or entity who knowingly deprives Missouri citizens of their right to bear arms – as protected by state and federal constitutions – will be liable for redress and monetary damages of $50,000 per occurrence,” according to Governor Mike Parson’s Office.
