This reform recognizes that visitors traveling to Wisconsin should not be left defenseless simply by crossing a state line.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/docs.legis.wisconsin.gov\/2021\/proposals\/REG\/AB495\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Assembly Bill 495<\/a>, sponsored by Representative Robert Brooks (R-60), passed the Senate by a vote of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/docs.legis.wisconsin.gov\/2021\/related\/votes\/senate\/sv0228\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">20-17<\/a>.\u00a0It\u00a0allows adults who are licensed to carry firearms,\u00a0to drive onto school grounds to pick-up or drop-off their students without first having to unload and store away their firearms in their vehicles.
