Preventing Unjust Red Flag Laws Act of 2025

This bill would stop any federal money from being used to carry out or enforce “red flag” orders. It also blocks federal agencies from giving money or help to states, cities, tribes, or territories to carry out or enforce these orders. The bill defines a red flag law as a risk-based, temporary order that takes away someone’s firearm without due process, and says no federal funds can be used for that purpose .

Key points:

• Who is affected: Federal agencies and any state or local governments that might seek federal help for red flag laws.
• What changes: No federal funds could be used to implement or enforce red flag orders, or to help others do so.
• Definition used: A red flag law is a temporary, preemptive order to remove a firearm without due process .

If this becomes law, federal support for these orders would stop. States and local governments would not be able to use federal money or assistance for them.
