Description

Provides the "Woodrum" appropriation for legislation proposed by the Governor. State law requires that any legislation that may increase the prison population over the succeeding six years from its enactment be accompanied by a one-year appropriation from the general fund equal to the estimated increase in prison operating costs of such legislation. There are five such bills proposed: allow the removal of firearms from persons who pose a substantial risk to themselves or others; prohibit the sale, possession, and transport of assault firearms, trigger activators, and silencers; increase the penalty for allowing a child to access unsecured firearms; prohibit possession of firearms for persons subject to final orders of protection; and require background checks for all firearms sales. The impact of these bills is estimated at $50,000 each.
