Allows members of federally recognized Tribes to use Tribal government identification documents to obtain firearms from licensed dealers.
The Tribal Firearm Access Act amends federal law to permit members of federally recognized Tribes to use their Tribal government identification documents when purchasing firearms from federally licensed dealers. This change is made by modifying Section 922(t)(1)(D) of title 18, United States Code, to include Tribal government identification documents alongside other accepted forms of identification. The Act also defines "Tribal government" to clarify which entities are eligible under the new provision. The amendments will take effect 90 days after the Act's enactment.
