OLYMPIA, Wash.—A gun rights bill introduced at the Washington state Capitol includes some quotes falsely attributed to America’s Founding Fathers.
The News Tribune reports Republican Rep. Matt Shea of Spokane Valley introduced the measure Friday.
House Bill 2975 would create penalties for public officials who block people from owning or buying guns.
The four-page bill devotes a page to quotes on gun ownership purportedly from the men who created the U.S. Constitution.
