Bill 119 s 119, also known as the Firearms Transaction Record Elimination Act, aims to amend title 18 of the United States Code to stop the Federal Government from collecting firearm transaction records from businesses that have closed down. The bill also mandates the destruction of any previously collected records.
The main purpose of this legislation is to protect the privacy and rights of individuals who have purchased firearms from businesses that are no longer operating. By discontinuing the collection and requiring the destruction of these records, the bill seeks to prevent the government from potentially using this information in ways that could infringe on the Second Amendment rights of gun owners.
In addition to discontinuing the collection and requiring the destruction of firearm transaction records, the bill also includes provisions for other purposes related to firearms regulation.
Overall, Bill 119 s 119 is aimed at safeguarding the privacy and rights of gun owners by limiting the government's ability to collect and retain information on firearm transactions from businesses that have closed down.
