Reinstate the Fireworks Ban

The Issue

Personal fireworks displays are a disturbance and a fire hazard. They frighten pets, children, and our veterans. What was supposed to be a law allowing small, ground fireworks has now turned into a gateway to purchase larger and more dangerous pyrotechnics. With close set homes, a quiet neighborhood becomes something akin to a war zone, and this happens nightly in the summer. Please help us protect our families and neighborhoods. Repeal the law!
