The Illinois State Senate passed House Bill 5471 banning the sale, manufacture, and possession of some of the most common semi-automatic rifles and shotguns.

 The vote was 34 – 20.

Attached are remarks by Senator Neil Anderson during debate on the semiautomatic gun ban.

While the legislation exempts gun owners who already own the firearms, it also includes a provision requiring them to register those firearms with the Illinois State Police.

The legislation is House Bill 5471 and now heads to the House for consideration.
