Some states and local governments maintain registries that track who owns firearms and what firearms they own. This bill would prohibit any federal agency from funding or supporting the creation or maintenance of those state or local gun owner databases. There's one exception: databases that only track firearms reported as lost or stolen would still be allowed. The bill applies to all U.S. states, territories, and the District of Columbia.
