What it does
The bill requires the Attorney General, through the ATF, to publish a public report each year on firearm trace data, starting within 6 months of enactment. The report must show which gun dealers had the most guns traced to crimes, how quickly traced guns move from sale to crime, guns lost or stolen from dealers, and privately made firearms recovered by police. It must also analyze firearms trafficking patterns and investigations, including how many involved youths.
