Repealing Federal Gun Control Measures and Restoring Second Amendment Rights

This bill aims to repeal gun control measures enacted by the 117th Congress. It reverses changes to the definition of dating relationships regarding gun ownership prohibitions for domestic violence convictions and removes provisions for enhanced NICS checks for individuals under 21. The legislation rescinds over $140 million from the ATF budget and halts federal funding for gun violence prevention programs and research that treats crime as a public health epidemic.
Key points
Changes to Firearm Access: Reverses provisions regarding gun ownership prohibitions for those convicted of domestic violence in dating relationships and removes requirements to check juvenile records for gun buyers.
Budget Cuts: Rescinds over $140 million from the ATF budget and eliminates funding for specific local community gun violence intervention projects.
Protection Against Confiscation: Prohibits the use of federal funds for 'red flag laws' and safe storage programs, including within the Department of Veterans Affairs.
Research Restrictions: Bans the CDC and NIH from funding research that treats crime as a public health epidemic or advocates for gun control.
