The bill amends the existing law regarding firearm possession by certain individuals, specifically focusing on the restoration of firearm rights for nonviolent felons. It allows for the automatic restoration of the right to possess a firearm for individuals who have been convicted of nonviolent felonies, provided that their underlying felony did not involve violence and is not listed among a specified set of serious offenses, such as homicide, robbery, or domestic violence. The bill also stipulates that the felony or delinquency adjudication must have occurred more than ten years ago, and the individual must have completed their sentence at least ten years prior to the restoration.

Additionally, the bill modifies the definition of who is prohibited from possessing a firearm by changing the language from "any" firearm to "a" firearm and specifies exceptions for certain nonviolent felonies related to business practices. It also clarifies that a felony conviction does not apply if the individual has received a pardon restoring their firearm rights. The changes aim to provide a pathway for nonviolent felons to regain their rights while maintaining restrictions for those convicted of more serious offenses.
