Exclusive: Stefanik, Issa Introduce Bill Fighting Anti-Second Amendment Laws in New York, California
Breitbart, by Bradley Jaye, July 24, 2025
Reps. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) and Darrell Issa (R-CA) reintroduced the Modern Firearm Safety Act to prohibit states like New York and California from enacting anti-Second Amendment laws disguised as gun safety.
The bill introduced Thursday, which Breitbart News learned exclusively, would prohibit states from enacting unconstitutional “handgun rosters” that prevent law-abiding citizens from accessing modern, safer handgun models and require firearm manufacturers to adopt costly and unnecessary features, making it nearly impossible to sell new handguns.
“For decades, the clear Constitutional rights of law-abiding gun owners have been targeted for elimination, and handgun rosters are only one of the cynical schemes used to undermine the Second Amendment through the pretense of firearm safety,” Issa said in a statement to Breitbart News. “These rosters impose excessive and unnecessary requirements that actually restrict access to firearms equipped with the most up-to-date safety features, and that’s why I’m proud to partner with my friend Rep. Stefanik to defend sacred rights and end these unjust restrictions.”
The Modern Firearm Safety Act would prohibit states from requiring loaded chamber indicators, magazine disconnect mechanisms, and microstamping for handgun sales, helping restore Second Amendment rights in restrictive states.
The legislation’s reintroduction coincides with a federal district court ruling that found California’s handgun roster requirements unconstitutional.
