MADISON, WI (WTAQ-WRN) — A proposal in the Wisconsin legislature would aid victims of gun violence.
The bill, introduced by Fitchburg Representative Jimmy Anderson and Milwaukee Senator Lena Taylor, would add a 0.5% tax to gun purchases in the state which would pay for a fund for victims of gun violence.
That fund would be administered by the state Department of Justice.
Anderson and Taylor are now seeking co-sponsors for that legislation.
