Why the model tagged it this way: The bill adds requirements for graphic warning signs about health and safety risks of firearms to be provided with licenses/permits and displayed by dealers (firearms/other, restricts by adding mandated warnings). It also grants liability protection to certain government entities for dealer noncompliance (firearms/industry-liability, expands by shielding from liability). No other listed topics are substantively addressed.
