PROTECT the Second Amendment Act
Summary
This bill, officially titled the "Preserving Rights Of Tenants by Ensuring Compliance To the Second Amendment Act," would prohibit landlords and property managers of federally assisted housing from restricting the lawful possession of firearms by their tenants. If enacted, residents in housing programs such as Section 8 or public housing would be guaranteed the right to keep firearms in their individual units and carry them through common areas when entering or leaving the building. The legislation aims to ensure that individuals receiving federal housing assistance do not lose their ability to own a firearm as a condition of their lease.
