Today, the Senate Budget and Taxation Committee will hold a hearing on Senate Bill 118, legislation that would impose an 11% excise tax on firearms, firearm accessories, and ammunition. Notably, the committee scheduled this hearing with less than the required notice and has excluded citizens from offering oral testimony. Please use the Take Action button below to contact members of the Senate Budget and Taxation Committee and urge them to OPPOSE SB 118.
SB 118 would impose an 11% excise tax on firearms, firearm accessories, and ammunition. This punitive tax targets law-abiding gun owners and Second Amendment supporters while doing nothing to address crime. Instead, it unfairly increases costs on those seeking to lawfully exercise their constitutional rights.
