Two Gun Bills to Be Considered by IL Legislators

At least two bills are being considered in the Illinois Fall Veto Session following the shooting in Las Vegas that left 58 people dead and more than 500 wounded on Oct. 1. A House bill introduced Oct. 5 by state Rep. Martin Moylan (D)  Des Plaines, would ban the sale of bump stocks, as well as assault weapons, large-caliber rifles and large-capacity magazines, described in the bill as holding 10 or more rounds of ammunition. Senate Bill 1657 would create state licensing for gun dealers and was filed by state Rep. Kathleen Willis (D) from Addison.
