Referred to the Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation. (text: CR S4393)
This Senate resolution honors small firearm manufacturers and their contributions to the American economy and culture. The resolution acknowledges that small businesses manufacturing handguns, rifles, shotguns, ammunition, and accessories support approximately 380,000 jobs and generate over 91 billion dollars in annual economic output, particularly in rural and small-town communities. The resolution recognizes shooting sports, including hunting, target shooting, and competitive marksmanship, as established American recreational traditions that promote responsible firearm handling and outdoor stewardship. The Senate declares August 2026 as "National Shooting Sports Month" and expresses support for policies that allow small firearm manufacturers to innovate and grow while preserving these recreational traditions. As a resolution rather than legislation, this measure does not create law, appropriate funds, or establish binding requirements; it serves as a formal expression of Senate sentiment.
