What this bill does

AI plain-language summary

This bill adds two new groups of people who would be banned from receiving, having, shipping, or moving guns and ammunition: people who don't meet the minimum age required by federal or their state's law, and people from out of state who don't qualify for a special exception, like borrowing a gun temporarily for legal sporting activities. The bill also makes it a crime for someone who has been formally charged with a serious crime to ship, transport, or receive a gun or ammunition, with penalties that could include a fine, up to 10 years in prison, or both.
