Bill Summary

Relative to alien firearm licensing. Public Safety and Homeland Security.

AI Summary

This bill, titled "Relative to alien firearm licensing," proposes to amend Section 131F of Chapter 140 of the General Laws, which likely pertains to firearm licensing regulations. Specifically, it aims to remove the restriction that prevents an alien, meaning a foreign national, who resides outside of the commonwealth (in this case, Massachusetts) from obtaining a firearm license. By striking out the phrase "Or to an alien that resides outside the commonwealth," the bill would allow non-residents who are foreign nationals to be eligible for firearm licensing in Massachusetts, provided they meet other established criteria.
