The Firearms Safety Update Committee surveyed and interviewed sherriffs and police chiefs across Minnesota to learn about the impact of firearms in our communities. The survey consisted of 20 questions addressing each of the issues in the League’s 1990 position on firearms and included questions about enforcement and the respondents’ opinions on the efficacy of existing laws and regulations.  Survey interviews were conducted by League members in person, by phone or Zoom between October 2020 and July 2021.  A total of 39 law enforcement officers participated.
