Bill Summary

A BILL To ensure that residents of covered federally assisted rental housing may lawfully possess firearms, and for other purposes.

AI Summary

This bill, known as the PROTECT the Second Amendment Act, aims to ensure that residents of federally assisted rental housing can possess firearms without additional restrictions. Specifically, the bill prohibits landlords or housing authorities from preventing tenants from keeping firearms in their residential units or carrying firearms through common areas while moving to or from their units. The bill defines "covered federally assisted rental housing" broadly, including public housing, rental assistance programs, HOME investment partnerships, housing for persons with disabilities, Native American housing programs, rural rental housing assistance, and several other federally supported housing initiatives administered by the Department of Housing and Urban Development and the Department of Agriculture. By establishing these protections, the bill seeks to protect the Second Amendment rights of low-income and subsidized housing residents, ensuring they have the same firearm possession rights as tenants in privately owned housing.
