Bill Summary
Relative to the issuance of licenses for firearms. Public Safety and Homeland Security.
AI Summary
This bill amends certain sections of Chapter 140 of the Massachusetts General Laws related to the issuance of firearms identification cards and licenses to carry firearms. The key provisions are: 1) allowing the licensing authority or the Executive Office of Public Safety to waive the fingerprint requirement for issuing or renewing a firearms identification card or license to carry if deemed reasonable, and 2) removing the word "fingerprint" from certain sections of the law. The purpose of these changes is to ensure timely constitutional access to acquire a firearms identification card or a license to carry firearms.
