A 327 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Establishes registry allowing persons to voluntarily include their names on list of individuals prohibited from owning firearm.

This bill would establish a voluntary "Do Not Sell" registry managed by the New Jersey State Police, allowing residents to register their names to be prohibited from purchasing firearms. To register, individuals would need to verify their identity, and the system would prevent unauthorized disclosure of personal information while notifying pre-selected personal contacts via email when registration occurs or ends. Registered individuals could request removal (with a 21-day waiting period) and the registry would destroy all records upon removal. Information about the registry would not be considered a public record, and knowingly transferring firearms to a registered person would be a crime of the third degree.
