I voted for this bill to pass out of committee and on the Senate floor because it is vital for enhancing public safety by expanding the places where weapons are restricted, especially those frequented by children. It aims to tackle intimidation tactics and the alarming increase in gun-related fatalities, prioritizing safety without compromising individual rights. I understand that creating a safe and secure environment for families is of utmost importance and a top priority for all of us. SB 5444 is a proactive step towards achieving this goal, and it reinforces our commitment to preventing gun violence and safeguarding our communities. Let&#8217;s work together to create a better future for our families and communities.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Another gun safety bill, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/app.leg.wa.gov\/billsummary?BillNumber=5693&amp;Initiative=false&amp;Year=2023\"><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">SB 5693<\/span><\/b><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\">, didn\u2019t make it out of committee this session. That bill would have required gun owners who live in WA, and own or possesses a firearm, to carry gun liability insurance to cover the losses or damages resulting from any accidental use of the firearm. This insurance could be a provision of existing homeowners\u2019 or renters\u2019 insurance, but the bill would require an insurance producer to inquire about gun ownership and safe storage creating a further incentive for safe storage and safe handling practices. This bill is not about intentional criminal behavior (which can\u2019t be insured against), it\u2019s about accidental shootings.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">I have also been receiving several emails on <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/app.leg.wa.gov\/billsummary?BillNumber=5770&amp;Initiative=false&amp;Year=2023\"><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">SB 5770<\/span><\/b><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\">, providing state and local property tax reform.

Not all bills that have made it this far will make it all the way to the Governor\u2019s desk, but we do now have a better sense of which bills will have to wait another year.
