If you committed a serious crime as a teen, you shouldn’t be packing heat as an adult—end of story.

Balancing second chances with public safety? This bill tries to thread that needle.

This bill holds people accountable without punishing kids forever—responsibility meets redemption.

Protecting rights means trusting rehabilitation, not punishing someone for what they did years ago.

Disarming adults for teenage mistakes? That’s a lifetime sentence before you’ve earned it.
