Establishes the Anti-Red Flag Gun Seizure Act

AI Summary

This bill establishes the "Anti-Red Flag Gun Seizure Act" in Missouri. The key provisions are: 1. It prohibits the enforcement of any federal "red flag law" that allows for the temporary or permanent seizure of firearms, firearm accessories, or ammunition from law-abiding citizens without adjudication of a contested court case. 2. It prohibits state agencies, political subdivisions, and law enforcement from receiving federal funding for enforcing any "red flag law" against Missouri citizens. 3. It allows individuals who have had a "red flag law" enforced against them to take legal action and seek injunctive relief, damages, and attorney's fees. 4. The bill is considered an emergency act necessary to limit federal government overreach and protect citizens' right to bear arms in Missouri.
