National Shooting Sports Education Grant Act of 2026
Generated by VFA SI Solutions
Honor the contributions of small firearms manufacturers to the U.S. economy, culture, and recreational heritage, and designate August 2026 as 'National Shooting Sports Month'.
Bipartisan rationale: Democratic priorities: supports youth education, public safety training, and community-based programs; uses a competitive grant model with oversight and accountability. Republican priorities: honors small firearms manufacturers and shooting sports heritage, respects state control over education (Tenth Amendment), does not impose new regulations on firearms, and includes a sunset provision to limit government growth.
