WI Bill Allowing Employees to Bring Guns to Work

In the Wisconsin state legislature, the Joint Finance committee approved a bill allowing residents to carry concealed weapons in most public places except for youth sporting events; day cares; hospitals, clinics or doctor offices; public or private college campuses; nonprofit organizations that serve children, such as a YMCA; and churches. It may prohibit employers from stopping employees from bringing weapons inside the workplace, except for K-12 schools, taverns and police stations. As the bill stands now, property owners would need to post signs and orally notify every individual in order to ban weapons on their property.
