This bill is named for 15-year-old Ethan Song, who accidentally shot himself in the head with an unsecured handgun while visiting a friend’s house. The gun had been stored inside a cardboard box with two other guns and ammunition.
The Connecticut legislature passed Ethan’s Law with significant bipartisan support in 2019. Including Connecticut, 26 states and the District of Columbia now have laws that require safe storage or hold gun owners responsible if they store a gun unsafely.
