Democratic Lawmaker Defies Stereotypes… by Giving Gun Owners a Tax Break

A Democratic lawmaker from Oklahoma is taking on the stereotype that liberals hate guns, love taxes, and suck at pandering to wacko voters.

Yesterday afternoon, the Oklahoma Senate Appropriations Committee advanced SB 50 by a 19-3 margin.

Introduced by Tulsa-area State Rep. Jo Anna Dossett, the bill will create a sales tax exemption in Oklahoma statutes “for the sale of firearm safety devices and gun safety devices,” or as Dossett put it on non-Twitter, “gun safes.”
