AN ACT TO AMEND TITLE 29 OF THE DELAWARE CODE RELATING TO LIMITING THE AUTHORITY OF PUBLIC BODIES TO REGULATE ARMS.

This new chapter is intended to address the banning of possession of firearms by certain governmental agencies and entities of the State. Currently, several housing agencies in this state have adopted policies of evicting or threatening to evict law abiding tenants from their homes merely for the otherwise lawful possession of firearms for self-defense. This practice constitutes discrimination based on economic circumstances leaving these residents at the mercy of criminals.
