Protecting the Second Amendment in Financial Services Act
This bill prohibits financial institutions (like banks and credit card processors) from using special transaction codes that separately identify firearm or ammunition sellers. It directly affects gun retailers and the financial services they use, ensuring these businesses are treated the same as other merchants for payment processing. The key provision amends the Truth in Lending Act to ban covered entities from categorizing firearm transactions differently, requiring uniform handling of all business types. This changes how payment systems classify transactions but does not alter gun ownership laws.
