Committee returns firearm-storage exemption bill with trigger-block definition to taxes panel

Senate File 11 returned to the Taxes Committee on Feb. 18 after a Judiciary Committee review and was laid over for possible inclusion. Senator Rest said the bill adds trigger blocks to an existing statutory sales-tax exemption for firearm storage units and that the language aligns with a streamlined sales tax definition under consideration by national groups.

Senator Rest noted an industry support letter from the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) was placed in the committee packet. No public testimony was offered on the floor during this hearing segment and the committee did not take a final vote; the bill was laid over for possible inclusion in omnibus legislation.
