What this bill would do

This bill is called the "Gun Owner Registration Information Protection Act." Its main goal is to stop Federal agencies from funding or supporting the creation or upkeep of State firearm ownership databases. These databases are defined as lists of lawfully owned firearms or the people who own them. However, the bill allows funding for databases that track firearms or individuals reported as lost or stolen.
