Industry, Public Input Helps Exclude Ammo From Bill Illinois’ Lead Poisoning Prevention Bill, which as originally passed by the state’s House of Representatives, could have been used to target ammunition manufacturers, distributors, users and owners of property where firearms are lawfully discharged, has been amended. Awareness efforts helped create an amendment from Sen. Carol Ronen, in which “lead bearing substance” did not include “firearm ammunition or components as defined by the Firearm Owners Identification Card Act.” The state House supported the Senate amendment with a vote of 115 to 1.
