How Illinois Wants to Use Your Doctor to Disarm You
This video from Washington Gun Law, presented by expert William Kirk, details proposed Illinois legislation (HB 1398 and HB 2526) that could impact firearm ownership. HB 1398 would require pediatricians to inquire about firearms in the home and safe storage, while HB 2526 seeks to expand the categories of healthcare professionals who can petition for red flag orders. The analysis suggests these bills, if passed, could lead to civilian disarmament by leveraging medical professionals and potentially eroding doctor-patient privilege regarding firearm ownership.
