According to Firearm Chronicles
No one voted for Sen. Kelly Loeffler to be a senator from Georgia.
That’s not a slam, just a fact. Loeffler was appointed to fill the seat by Gov. Brian Kemp (R) after Sen. Johnny Isakson (R) resigned from office due to health reasons at the end of 2019. She hasn’t been in office long and is now trying to hold onto her seat, but so far, the people of Georgia haven’t elected her for anything.
Yet, anyway.
However, if she keeps introducing legislation like this, I suspect a lot of people in the state will change that.
Loeffler’s bill, the Gun Owner Privacy Act, would ban the use of federal funds to store personal information collected during background checks attached to gun purchases. Federal agencies are already barred from creating a database of gun owners, but the legislation will give citizens recourse for any infringements on their privacy. While the law would not apply to Americans who fail background checks, those whose records are illegally stored will be able to sue agencies in federal court and collect damages.
