Traveler's Gun Rights Act
This bill broadens the scope of allowable firearms transactions involving active duty servicemembers and their spouses and individuals who do not have a residence in any state.
Currently, federal firearms laws generally prohibit a federal firearms licensee (e.g., a gun dealer) from selling or delivering a firearm to an individual whose state of residence is different than the state where the licensee's place of business is located.
This bill defines the term state of residence as the state in which an individual is present with an intention of making a home.
In the case of an individual who does not have a physical residence in any state, the term state of residence means the address of the individual's private mailbox or post office box.
In the case of a member of the Armed Forces on active duty, or his or her spouse, the term state of residence means (1) the state in which the member's permanent duty station is located, and (2) the state where the member maintains a place of abode from which he or she commutes to the permanent duty station.
Includes amendment, cloture, and procedural votes. Each is labeled with its exact question; only a passage question is a vote to pass the bill.
No recorded roll calls on this bill in coverage.
Read twice and referred to the Committee on the Judiciary.
