Plain-English Summary
This proposal would allow people to mail firearms through the U.S. Postal Service, which is currently prohibited by federal law. The change would affect gun owners, postal workers, and law enforcement agencies that oversee mail regulations. Supporters argue it would give people more convenient shipping options, while opponents worry about safety and security risks.
