Stopping the Fraudulent Sales of Firearms Act
The Stopping the Fraudulent Sales of Firearms Act would make it a federal crime to sell, manufacture, or import firearms or ammunition using false or fraudulent claims. It also prohibits transmitting communications about such sales via wire, radio, or television across state or international borders. This law directly affects sellers, manufacturers, and anyone involved in fraudulent firearm transactions or communications about them. The bill amends existing federal firearms law to add these specific prohibitions and update penalty provisions.
