South Dakota: Firearm Financial Privacy Signed Into Law

South Dakota: Firearm Financial Privacy Signed Into Law

On February 24th, Governor Larry Rhoden signed Senate Bill 81 into law, protecting the financial privacy of gun owners in South Dakota. Please thank Governor Rhoden and your legislators for their support. 

Senate Bill 81 prohibits the assigning and use of firearm and ammunition specific merchant category codes by payment processors. This critical legislation protects gun-owners privacy and ensures that bad actors cannot use credit and debit card transactions to create a gun-registry or block cardholders from making gun-related purchases.

This is a critical victory for all law-abiding gun owners in South Dakota! NRA thanks all of our members and fellow Second Amendment advocates who engaged with their legislators to support Senate Bill 81.
