A BILL To amend title 41, United States Code, to prohibit the Federal Government from entering into contracts with an entity that discriminates against firearm or ammunition industries, and for other purposes.

AI Summary

This bill, the Firearm Industry Non-Discrimination Act (FIND Act), prohibits the federal government from entering into contracts with entities that discriminate against the firearm or ammunition industries. It requires federal agencies to include a clause in their contracts that prohibits contractors from having or adopting policies, practices, or directives that discriminate against firearm entities or trade associations. The bill also prohibits prime contractors from awarding subcontracts over 10% of the contract value to entities that fail to certify they have no such discriminatory policies. Violations of these provisions can result in contract termination and suspension or debarment of the contractor. The bill defines key terms like "discriminate" and "firearm entity" to provide clarity on its scope and requirements.
