Legislative Activity

The "Protecting the Mailing of Firearms Act" aims to allow the mailing of concealable firearms by repealing the existing prohibition in title 18, section 1715 of the United States Code. Additionally, it prevents the Postmaster General from establishing rules that would ban or hinder the mailing of firearms, ammunition, or firearm components, or require the disclosure of sales records or firearm serial numbers.

The NFA SBS Act seeks to remove short-barreled shotguns from the purview of the National Firearms Act, thereby eliminating specific federal regulations and restrictions on these firearms. This bill amends the Internal Revenue Code and Title 18 of the United States Code to exclude short-barreled shotguns from certain definitions and prohibitions, preempting state and local laws that impose taxes, registration, or record-keeping requirements on these shotguns, and mandates the destruction of related records held by the Attorney General. The bill aims to treat short-barreled shotguns like other legal firearms, removing what proponents argue are unnecessary restrictions.

The FIGHTER Act of 2025 excludes the regular compensation of active duty members of the Armed Forces from gross income for tax purposes, excluding those who served in Congress within the last 10 years. The Department of the Treasury will adjust withholding procedures to accommodate this change, which takes effect for taxable years after 2024. The Act also mandates cost-saving measures within the United States DOGE Service to offset any resulting reduction in federal revenue.
