LC 1399 Legislature · 2025 Regular Session

Generally revise suicide prevention laws

This bill creates a voluntary program allowing Montana residents to voluntarily restrict their ability to purchase firearms by adding themselves to the federal background check system. The legislation requires state agencies, courts, and law enforcement to make waiver forms available and establishes procedures for individuals to submit these forms in person with government identification. People can later request removal from the list through a standard process within 21 days or an expedited court hearing, and the bill includes protections against discrimination based on participation in the program.
