Having failed to get traction for his gun ban in the legislature, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) is now suggesting a ban on the “sale and possession of assault rifles in the state” via constitutional amendment.

“Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz proposed a new option Saturday for addressing gun violence: A constitutional amendment to ban the sale and possession of assault rifles in the state,” MinnPost reported . “It requires a majority of the Legislature to vote yes to putting a ban on the ballot, and then a majority of voters approving the amendment.”

Breitbart News noted that Walz pushed for an “assault weapons” ban after the August 27, 2025, Annunciation Catholic School shooting, then said it was “not acceptable” that Republican members of the legislature were refusing to “vote on gun bans.”
