Relating to the enforcement of certain federal laws restricting the acquisition, manufacture, or possession of ammunition in this state.

HB 2881 prohibits Texas state and local government entities from assisting federal authorities in enforcing federal laws that restrict getting, making, or possessing ammunition, if those restrictions do not already exist under Texas law. The bill specifically blocks cooperation on federal requirements such as firearm registration, licensing, background checks for private ammunition sales, confiscation programs, purchase limits, or manufacturing restrictions. However, it exempts federal laws that were in effect as of January 19, 2021, for some restrictions and as of August 31, 2025, for others. The law will take effect on September 1, 2025.
