Bill overview
This bill, the PLCAA Federal Jurisdiction Act, aims to give gun manufacturers, sellers, and trade associations more options when facing civil lawsuits related to their firearms. Specifically, it allows them to remove these lawsuits from state courts and transfer them to federal courts. The federal court can then determine if the lawsuit qualifies as a ‘qualified civil liability action’ under the existing Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act and, if so, dismiss the case.
