Canada won't charge federal sales tax on several holiday essentials as well as food and drinks. Here's how it affects WA.
The article from The News Tribune discusses a significant legislative move in Washington state where the Senate passed a bill with a 28-21 vote to ban the sale of AR-15s and other semi-automatic rifles. This legislation, known as Senate Bill 5265, targets what are often referred to as "assault weapons," aiming to restrict their sale, manufacture, and importation. The bill lists specific firearms by name and defines characteristics that would classify other firearms under this ban. Despite opposition from gun rights advocates and some legislators who argue it infringes on Second Amendment rights, supporters of the bill, including gun control advocates, believe it's a necessary step to reduce gun violence. The bill now moves to the House for further consideration.
