This bill aims to enhance the privacy of firearm ownership in Nebraska by prohibiting government entities and officials from maintaining lists or registries of privately owned firearms and their owners, except in specific circumstances related to criminal investigations. It also restricts payment card networks and covered entities from using merchant category codes that would identify firearm retailers separately from other retailers. The bill defines key terms related to firearms, ammunition, and payment transactions to clarify its provisions.

To enforce these prohibitions, the bill grants the Attorney General the authority to investigate violations and issue written notices to offending parties. If violations are not rectified within thirty business days, the Attorney General can seek an injunction and impose civil fines of up to one thousand dollars per violation. The bill establishes that the remedies provided are exclusive, and it allows for a defense if the use of a merchant category code was mandated by law.
