Firearms: California Do Not Sell List.

Summary

The bill would let any California resident add their name to a confidential list that prevents dealers and private sellers from completing a firearms eligibility check for them. After a minimum 14‑day waiting period, the person could also request removal. The measure was intended to give individuals a tool to temporarily opt‑out of buying guns, but it did not pass.
