Why the model tagged it this way: The bill amends penalties for delinquent children, specifically adding or detailing loss of driving privileges for firearm-related offenses by juveniles (unlawful use/possession of handgun or 'streetsweeper'), which restricts access to driving as a consequence of firearm violations. It also changes some mandatory language to permissive ('shall' to 'may') for truancy, creating a mixed effect overall, but the firearm provisions are the substantive change tied to the topic. No other listed topics are substantively addressed.
