OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. (KTEN) --  A bill that would make Oklahoma a Second Amendment sanctuary state is headed to the state Senate.

If it wins approval and is signed by Gov. Kevin Stitt, Senate Bill 631 would prevent any future legislation by the federal government from infringing on the gun rights of Oklahomans.

The legislation was introduced by Sen. Warren Hamilton (R-McCurtain County).

"SB 631 re-affirms our recognition of the self-evident truth that in America, power resides with the people and re-affirms our oath to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States,” Hamilton said in a written statement. “It will serve as a wall of protection around our God-given, Constitutionally-protected, right to keep and bear arms."

The sanctuary bill is opposed by the Oklahoma Democratic Party. A similar bill is pending in Texas.
