Urges Congress and President of US to enact legislation addressing interstate transportation of firearms or ammunition.
SCR 14 is a New Jersey concurrent resolution urging Congress to pass H.R.225, which would amend the Firearm Owners' Protection Act of 1986. The proposed law would protect law-abiding gun owners transporting legally possessed firearms across state lines by broadening the definition of "transport" to include overnight stays, medical emergencies, and other incidental travel activities. It specifically ensures protection for individuals who store firearms unloaded in a locked container during travel, addressing situations where current law leaves them vulnerable to criminal charges. The resolution cites the 2005 case of Greg Revell, jailed in New Jersey for 10 days while awaiting a connecting flight with his legally transported firearm, as an example requiring this federal fix.
