MINEOLA - A new bill proposed by the Nassau legislature is calling for stricter gun safety regulations.
Lawmakers plan to introduce the "County Safe Gun" bill Wednesday. The legislation would require gun owners to secure and lock their firearms when they are not in use. Violators could face fines and possible jail time.
The new measure is aimed at preventing theft and children or unauthorized users from getting hold of guns. Some question whether the bill hinders personal or home security.
Supporters of the legislation plan to rally outside the steps of the county legislature building Wednesday.
