Last Wednesday, the Michigan House of Representatives approved legislation co-sponsored by State Representative Joseph G. Pavlov to introduce a firearms education course for students in grades 6 through 12. House Bill 4285 mandates the Michigan Department of Education to collaborate with the Department of Natural Resources to develop a model program for firearm safety instruction, which will be available as an elective course in public schools.
“The goal of this legislation is simply to help more young people know how to safely and capably exercise their Second Amendment rights,” stated Pavlov. “We want the next generation of leaders to be the kind of people who know the incredible responsibility and capabilities that come with operating a firearm. This bill will help make our communities safer.”
The bill received strong bipartisan support in the House and now proceeds to the Senate for further review.
