Why the model tagged it this way: The bill conditions various federal law enforcement grants on certifications that the applicant has not disclosed PII from firearm registration, concealed/open carry permit applications, or background checks. This protects Second Amendment-related data by restricting disclosures, thereby expanding the ability to own and carry firearms without fear of data sharing. No provisions on other listed topics.
