Minnesota House passes gun bills relating to storage of firearms, requiring gun thefts be reported

Featured, Home Page News, Minnesota, National News, News /

Acknowledging no single law is going to prevent all tragedies, Minnesota Rep. Jamie Becker-Finn, DFL-Roseville, nonetheless urged passage of a firearms storage bill she’s sponsoring in the hope that fewer youth may die from gun accidents.
Existing laws on firearms storage would be expanded to specify that a person must either store a firearm unloaded and equipped with a locking device or store the firearm in a firearms storage unit.

The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation recently released white-tailed deer harvest statistics from the 2023-24 hunting season. The estimated harvest reflects a statewide decrease of 9.6%.
In 2023 (which includes early 2024), 209,781 whitetails were taken compared to 231,961 in 2022. The number is also down from the five-year average of 229,839. The greatest contributor to this decrease was a lower antlered deer harvest.

These are the expenditures from the dedicated sales tax passed in 2008.
