Proposed state law could make national gun law unenforceable
ROCHESTER, Minn. (KTTC) -- As the debate over gun control
continues on a national level, a movement in the state
legislature could add a new element to the discussion.  A local
representative has authored a bill that would make any federal
law regarding gun control unenforceable in Minnesota.  Mazeppa
Republican Steve Drazkowski authored H.F. 419, making Minnesota
one of 17 states challenging the enforceability of the proposed
gun control legislation.  If Drazkowski has his way, any
national law regarding gun control would be null and void in
Minnesota. That has one family in Rochester very happy.  "I
think that every time there is a shooting or some horrible
incident in the news, it's used as political fodder," said
Tiffany Rico of Rochester. "And people jump on board and say
'See? We need to limit this and restrict this.'"
