HR 7352 United States House · 118th Congress

Identify Gun Stores Act

This bill prevents states from banning or discouraging the use of specific financial industry codes (merchant category codes) that identify firearm and ammunition merchants. It directly affects financial institutions and payment processors that use these standardized codes for transaction tracking. The law requires states to allow the use of these codes, and the Attorney General can enforce this through civil lawsuits. The bill does not change gun laws or affect gun owners; it only addresses financial coding standards.
