Bill overview
This bill creates a ‘do-not-sell’ list for firearms in Michigan, aiming to prevent sales to individuals with a history of violence or other concerning factors. It establishes criteria for inclusion on the list, including felony convictions, mental health issues, or domestic violence orders. The bill also modifies existing firearm regulations, allowing individuals who registered pistols before 2013 to still possess them under specific conditions, and requires certain individuals (like corrections officers and retired law enforcement) to obtain licenses to purchase or carry firearms. It introduces a process for adding names to a ‘do-not-sell’ list to prevent firearm sales to potentially dangerous individuals.
