No User Fees for Gun Owners Act

# No User Fees for Gun Owners Act — Summary **What the bill would do:** This bill would prohibit state and local governments from charging special taxes, user fees, insurance requirements, or similar charges specifically targeting firearms and ammunition. For example, it would ban state-imposed firearms taxes or ammunition fees. The bill does allow regular sales taxes (the kind applied to most goods) to continue applying to guns and ammunition. **Who it affects:** Gun owners and manufacturers would benefit by avoiding potential new state or local fees. State and local governments could be affected financially if they currently use or plan to use firearm-related fees for revenue or as a way to discourage gun purchases.

The general public could be indirectly affected depending on how states use such revenue (for example, some states use gun fees to fund gun safety programs or violence prevention). **Current status:** The bill was introduced in the 119th Congress by Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-TX) and is currently in committee, meaning it hasn't yet been voted on by the full House. It remains in the early stages of the legislative process.
