To provide that any United States Government identification document issued for an illegal alien is not sufficient to meet the identification document requirement for acquiring a firearm from a Federal firearms licensee, and for other purposes.
This bill, called the "No Guns for Illegal Aliens Act," would change federal gun purchase rules by prohibiting people from using government identification documents issued to undocumented immigrants as valid ID when buying firearms from licensed gun dealers. Currently, federal law requires gun buyers to present an identification document, and this bill would exclude any ID issued to someone who entered the country illegally from meeting that requirement. The legislation affects undocumented immigrants and licensed firearm dealers who verify customer identity during sales. The bill does not specify any funding or implementation timeline, and it would take effect through amendments to existing federal firearms law once passed. The measure was introduced in October 2024 and referred to the House Judiciary Committee.
