Prohibiting Discrimination Against Firearm Industry in Government Contracts

This new law aims to prevent discrimination against firearm and ammunition industry entities by government contractors. It means that companies seeking federal contracts cannot have policies that discriminate against firearm manufacturers or sellers. If these rules are violated, contracts can be terminated and companies penalized.
Key points
Companies bidding for U.S. federal contracts must certify they do not discriminate against the firearm industry.
The non-discrimination rule also applies to subcontractors performing a significant portion of the prime contract's value.
Violations can lead to contract termination and potential suspension from future government work.
