What it does
The Responsible Firearms Marketing Act would direct the Federal Trade Commission to study and report on potentially unfair or deceptive advertising or marketing practices related to firearms, particularly those targeting minors, encouraging illegal use, or involving semiautomatic assault weapons. Based on the study, the FTC would be required to issue regulations prohibiting such practices by firearm manufacturers, dealers, and importers, with enforcement authority under existing FTC Act provisions. The bill aims to increase transparency and accountability in firearms marketing while preserving the Commission’s broader regulatory authority.
