Repeal of Social Security Gun Ban.

The House of Representatives voted to repeal Barack Obama’s social security gun ban (H.J.Res. 40). Obama’s executive rule would have resulted in the federal government trolling the Social Security rolls and identifying recipients whose checks were processed by a guardian. Once these people were identified, their names would be inputted into the NICS system, and their guns would be taken away. President Trump signed this repeal language into law.
