Gun Safety Incentive Act (HR4487)
Current understanding
The Gun Safety Incentive Act (HR4487, 119th Congress) was introduced in the House and referred to the Committees on the Judiciary and on Ways and Means. The dual referral (Judiciary plus Ways and Means) suggests the bill combines firearm-related provisions with a tax-code incentive mechanism, though substantive details have not yet been surfaced beyond committee assignment.
