AI Summary

This bill, the Firearm Industry Non-Discrimination Act (FIND Act), amends the United States Code to prohibit the federal government from entering into contracts with entities that discriminate against the firearm or ammunition industries. Specifically, the bill requires federal agencies to include a clause in their contracts that prohibits contractors from having policies, practices, or directives that discriminate against firearm entities or firearm trade associations. The bill defines "discriminate" to include making judgements based on partial criteria or dislike for the firearm industry, refusing to provide services to the firearm industry, or limiting the operations of the firearm industry beyond what is required by law. The bill applies to contracts awarded after the date of enactment and provides penalties, such as contract termination and suspension or debarment, for contractors that violate the non-discrimination clause.
