Here are the facts: H.R. 2640 would provide financial incentives to states to make records of prohibited individuals available for use in the NICS, and would also require federal agencies to provide such records. Those blocked from buying a gun due to these newly provided and updated records in the NICS are already prohibited under current law from owning firearms.
I do not have further updates from the NRA. Maybe Shooter does.
One big problem that I have is that a crime that is a misdomeanor in one state could be a felony in another. Does that mean that they will be considered felons?
I forgot to add, that it will include restraining orders. Not all ROs are given under due process (boiler plate part of divorces in some states).
There, fixed it. The NRA talking points on this are a spun distortion.
