Visa, Mastercard, and American Express are implementing a tracking system to monitor gun-related purchases in California.
The new merchant code will allegedly be used to comply with a “California law that will allow banks to potentially track suspicious gun purchases and report them to law enforcement.”
“Once again, credit card companies are attempting to track the information of lawful gun owners. This is yet another egregious ATTACK by the Far Left on Americans’ Second Amendment rights to bear arms,” Rep. Richard Hudson (R-NC) said of the plan.
The law reportedly goes into effect in 2025.
