What this bill does
AI plain-language summaryThis bill would let the Department of Justice give grants to state, local, or tribal governments, or gun dealers, to run programs where people can turn in their firearms in exchange for payment. Gun dealers involved in these programs would be required to hand over any collected guns to the appropriate government agency. The government could also provide special prepaid cards to load money onto as payment for people who turn in their guns. The bill also makes it a crime, punishable by a fine, to use or accept one of these prepaid cards to buy a gun or ammunition.
