Which industries are materially affected by specific provisions in this bill. 1 harmed.
Section 2(b) amends 18 U.S.C. § 922(d) to prohibit sale or disposition of firearms to persons convicted of a misdemeanor hate crime or who received an enhanced sentence for such crime; Section 2(c) amends § 922(g) to prohibit possession, shipment, or transport of firearms by such persons. This directly restricts the firearms industry's ability to sell to a class of individuals, imposing a clear cost.
