Bill overview
Senate Bill 1058 aims to protect the privacy of firearm owners by prohibiting the use of merchant category codes to identify or distinguish firearm retailers from other businesses. The bill restricts government registries of firearms and prevents payment card networks from incentivizing the use of such codes. Violations could result in injunctions and civil penalties, with the Attorney General and County Attorney having primary enforcement authority.
