Terror Intelligence Improvement Act: Enhanced Information Sharing and Firearm Restrictions
This act aims to improve information sharing among federal agencies to prevent terrorism. It introduces new rules for sharing data on individuals under terrorism investigation and allows for delaying firearm and explosive sales to such individuals. Citizens who have been subject to a terrorism investigation may face difficulties in purchasing firearms.
Key points
Federal agencies must regularly provide the FBI with information on individuals under terrorism investigation.
The national instant criminal background check system will immediately notify the FBI of attempts by suspected terrorists to purchase firearms.
The Attorney General can delay firearm or explosive transfers to suspected terrorists for 10 business days and file an emergency court petition to prevent the transfer.
If a court denies the petition to block a transfer, the government will be responsible for the individual's reasonable costs and attorney's fees.
