Innovate to De-Escalate Modernization Act

What this bill does

AI plain-language summary

This bill would make it so that certain devices designed to stop people without killing them, like some TASERs, are no longer regulated under the same gun laws that apply to regular firearms. To qualify, these devices must not be able to fire regular ammunition at high speeds, must be designed so they are not likely to cause death or serious injury, and must not accept detachable ammunition magazines. The bill also requires the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives to decide within 90 days whether a specific device meets these rules when someone asks them to review it.
