S 7302 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to the recertification process for firearms

This bill (S 7302) modifies New York's firearms licensing process by allowing applicants to request privacy for their personal information (name, address, etc.) on public records. It affects anyone applying for or renewing a firearms license, giving them a new option to avoid public disclosure if they meet specific safety or privacy grounds - such as being a law enforcement officer, under a protection order, or fearing harassment. The licensing officer must grant these privacy requests unless false information is provided, while still allowing law enforcement access to the records upon request. The change updates existing rules to add this privacy option during the license application and recertification process.
