This bill proposes the creation of a new section, 62.1-01-03.2, in the North Dakota Century Code, which establishes a state prohibition on extreme risk protection provisions. The bill defines "extreme risk protection provision" as any rule or order that restricts an individual deemed at extreme risk of personal injury or death from accessing weapons, including prohibitions on ownership, possession, or use of arms. Notably, the bill clarifies that domestic violence protection orders and involuntary commitment orders are excluded from this definition.

Under the new section, no person, including state agencies or political subdivisions, is allowed to adopt or enforce extreme risk protection provisions. Additionally, except for the Department of Health and Human Services, state agencies and subdivisions are prohibited from using any appropriated funds to implement or enforce such provisions. Violating this section would result in a class B felony charge.
