HR 2698

The Bolstering Security Against Ghost Guns Act directs the Department of Homeland Security to develop and implement a strategy to address the threat posed by ‘ghost guns’ – privately manufactured firearms that can be difficult to trace. The bill mandates specific actions including threat assessments, collaboration with partners, research into prevention methods, and reporting on Transportation Security Administration violations. It also focuses on sharing information with international partners and analyzing potential connections to terrorism and illicit trafficking.
