SECURE Firearm Storage Act

# SECURE Firearm Storage Act Summary **What the Bill Does** The SECURE Firearm Storage Act would require licensed firearms businesses—including importers, manufacturers, and gun dealers—to securely store their inventory and business records when their premises are closed. The bill establishes security standards that these businesses must meet to prevent unauthorized access to firearms and documents. Companies that fail to comply would face penalties including civil fines, suspension of their firearms license, revocation of their license, or a combination of these punishments. **Who It Affects** This bill directly impacts licensed firearms businesses and their operations.

It does not affect individual gun owners or private firearm storage. The regulations would apply only to commercial entities that are already licensed by federal authorities to import, manufacture, or sell firearms. **Current Status** The bill was introduced by Representative Bradley Scott Schneider (D-IL) in the 119th Congress and is currently in committee, meaning it has not yet been debated or voted on by the full House of Representatives. No action has been taken since its introduction.
