If you live in Washington, and your employer has rules prohibiting the storage of firearms in your vehicle, then you will want to look at House Bill 2137. This bill would make it illegal for an employer to fire an employee for storing a firearm in their locked vehicle.
From the bill:
The legislature intends by this act to protect the right of each citizen to lawfully transport and store firearms within his or her private vehicle for lawful purposes in any place the vehicle is otherwise permitted to be and whenever this would not contravene existing federal or state law.
-and-
A business, commercial enterprise, or employer may not establish, maintain, or enforce a policy or rule that prohibits or has the effect of prohibiting a person from transporting or storing any firearm or ammunition in a privately owned motor vehicle when the person is in compliance with all other applicable laws and the firearm or ammunition is locked out of sight within the trunk, glove box, or other enclosed compartment or area within or on the privately owned motor vehicle.
That’s right- if you are not disobeying state or federal law, you can store your weapon in your car while at work! It’s about time!
Let’s together support this legislation!
