Reps. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.) and Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) have reintroduced the “Modern Firearm Safety Act,” which aims to prevent states such as California and New York from restricting gun access to citizens, Stefanik’s office said in a July 24 statement.
If passed, states and agencies would be banned from imposing regulations that require a handgun to incorporate a design feature, functionality, safety mechanism, or performance standard not mandated by federal statute, the bill states.
