Introduced
by
To mandate that each firearms owner must buy insurance that covers 100 percent of the liability for an injury or death arising out of the discharge of the gun, subject to a modest civil fine that would increase at 10 percent per month (approximately 214 percent per year) if not paid. Insurance companies would also be required to create a joint coverage pool to cover losses (similar to the reinsurance pool in the state’s no-fault auto insurance system).
