AI Summary
This bill prohibits payment card networks from requiring or permitting the use of merchant category codes that distinguish firearms retailers from other retailers. The bill also prohibits the creation or maintenance of registries or records of privately owned firearms, except for certain limited purposes. The attorney general is tasked with investigating alleged violations and can seek civil penalties against those who fail to comply with the law. The bill provides a defense for those who make a good-faith determination that their actions were required by law.
