Referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary.
Summary
The bill creates a civil cause of action that lets anyone injured by a firearm in a gun‑free zone sue the state or local government for compensation, if the person could have legally carried a gun in their home state and might have prevented the harm. It requires states that receive federal law‑enforcement grants to eliminate or modify gun‑free‑zone laws, or risk losing up to 99% of those funds, which are then re‑allocated to compliant jurisdictions. The measure aims to protect individuals’ right to self‑defense while leveraging federal funding to encourage policy changes.
