Requires notification of firearm denials to local law enforcement and the local prosecutor having jurisdiction where the prohibited person sought to acquire the firearm; requires local law enforcement to initiate a criminal investigation within five business days.

This bill requires that if someone is denied the ability to purchase a firearm, local law enforcement and the local prosecutor must be notified. Additionally, local police must start a criminal investigation into the denial within five business days. This aims to ensure that prohibited individuals are not able to obtain firearms illegally.

Supporters of the bill would argue that it strengthens public safety by ensuring that law enforcement is promptly informed about firearm denials. They would emphasize that quick investigations can help prevent potential gun violence by addressing illegal attempts to acquire firearms.

Critics might argue that the bill could lead to unnecessary criminal investigations and potential harassment of individuals who are denied firearms. They may contend that it infringes on personal rights and adds burdensome requirements on law enforcement without addressing the root causes of gun violence.
