AI Summary
This bill proposes to amend Massachusetts law to deny licenses to carry firearms to individuals who are listed on the consolidated Terrorist Watchlist, which is maintained by the Terrorist Screening Center, an entity administered by the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Additionally, it seeks to deny such licenses to individuals on the No-Fly List, a list managed by the United States Transportation Security Administration that prevents certain individuals from boarding commercial flights, as authorized by federal law. These changes are intended to enhance public safety by preventing individuals identified as potential security risks from obtaining firearms.
