> Preemption of local gun control means local governments can’t pass their own anti-gun measures. Those must come from the state. > A number of states have preemption laws and most are pretty clear. They may allow restrictions in one or two specific areas, but local officials can’t pass their own gun control beyond that. > In Omaha, the city council thinks they can kind of do whatever they want, though. While the state has preemption, they’ve just voted to ban parts for so-called ghost guns.
