Protecting Gun Owners in Bankruptcy Act
The Protecting Gun Owners in Bankruptcy Act would amend federal bankruptcy law to allow individuals filing for bankruptcy to keep firearms they own, up to a total value of $3,000. It adds a specific exemption for firearms in bankruptcy property protections, covering either a single firearm or multiple firearms collectively valued at $3,000 or less. This means creditors cannot force the sale of qualifying firearms during bankruptcy proceedings. The change would only apply to bankruptcy cases filed after the law takes effect.
