Veterans 2nd Amendment Protection Act of 2025 prohibits the VA from sharing beneficiary info with DOJ for background checks.
The Veterans 2nd Amendment Protection Act of 2025 amends title 38 of the United States Code to prevent the Secretary of Veterans Affairs from sharing personally identifiable information of beneficiaries with the Department of Justice for use in the national instant criminal background check system. This prohibition applies unless a judge orders or finds that the beneficiary is a danger to themselves or others. The bill inserts a new section, 5501B, into Chapter 55 of title 38, and makes a corresponding clerical amendment to the table of sections.
