HR 9941 United States House · 118th Congress

No Guns for Illegal Aliens Act

The No Guns for Illegal Aliens Act amends federal law to prevent individuals without legal U.S. immigration status from using certain identification documents to purchase firearms. Specifically, it revises the requirement that a buyer must present a valid ID by excluding documents issued for aliens who have not been admitted to the U.S. from being considered valid. This means non-citizens in the U.S. without legal status (often termed "illegal aliens") cannot use their existing identification - such as foreign passports or other documents issued to undocumented individuals - to pass the ID check when buying a gun from a licensed dealer. The bill directly affects undocumented immigrants seeking to purchase firearms through licensed channels by closing a loophole in current identification verification rules.
