SAFER Voter Act

2018-02-27

Introduced in House

Second Amendment For Every Registrable Voter Act or the SAFER Voter Act

This bill amends the federal criminal code to modify age restrictions on the sale or delivery of a firearm by a federally licensed gun dealer, manufacturer, importer, or collector.

Currently, it is unlawful for a licensee to sell or deliver: (1) any firearm to an individual less than 18 years of age, or (2) a handgun to an individual less than 21 years of age.

This bill eliminates the prohibition on sale or delivery of a handgun to an individual less than 21 years of age.
