The proposed legislation appears to come close to violating the Legislative Privileges Clause of the Missouri Constitution.

Section 19. Senators and representatives shall, in all cases except treason, felony, or breach of the peace, be privileged from arrest during the session of the general assembly, and for the fifteen days next before the commencement and after the termination of each session; and they shall not be questioned for any speech or debate in either house in any other place.

I think it was done in retaliation of the other bill outlawing certain guns and requiring they be turned in. Neither bill had a SBCIH of being passed.
