FIREARM OWNERS ID ACT-REPEAL
SB 3171 repeals the law requiring a Firearm Owners Identification (FOID) card for gun owners. This directly affects individuals who previously needed this card to purchase or possess firearms. The bill removes the FOID card requirement and updates other related laws to reflect this change. The repeal takes effect immediately upon passage, eliminating a specific administrative requirement for gun owners.
