House bill blocks gun purchase tracking merchant code
Iowa House GOP advances House Fire 2464 to prohibit merchant category codes that would identify gun retailers and flag or block firearm buys. The measure bars banks from using a gun store code to deny transactions and blocks state local records of private firearms except in legal cases. It codifies protections for consumer privacy while maintaining fraud alerts and criminal-activity reporting.
