HR 771 United States House · 118th Congress

Firearm Lockbox Protection Act of 2023

This bill requires the General Services Administration to provide secure firearm storage facilities at the official duty stations of federal judges upon their request. It also mandates that agencies employing administrative judges must provide similar secure storage at their principal duty stations. The provisions apply only to firearms lawfully possessed by these judges, not to new firearm ownership rules. The bill directly affects federal and administrative judges who own firearms, ensuring they have secure storage options at work. It makes no changes to gun ownership laws but creates a new administrative service for judge safety.
