Wisconsin freshman Congressman TonyWied (RWI08) introduced the Freedom from Improper Regulation and Enforcement (FIRE) Act late on July17, aiming to prohibit any federal, state, or local limit on firearm magazine capacity. Flanked by members of the House Second Amendment Caucus, Wied argued existing patchwork rules criminalize ordinary gun owners traveling across state lines and are inconsistent with the Supreme Courts Bruen decision. The fourpage bill would employ Congresss Section5 enforcement powers under the 14thAmendment to invalidate capacity caps and allow citizens wrongfully prosecuted under such laws to sue for damages and attorney fees. The National Rifle Association and Gun Owners of America immediately endorsed the measure, while the Giffords Law Center labeled it a reckless preemption that invites more masscasualty shootings. Early cosponsors include Reps. Boebert, Crenshaw, and Bishop. A Senate companion bill is expected from Sen. MikeLee (RUT). House Judiciary Chair JimJordan signaled support for a fall markup, but analysts predict steep resistance in the Democratcontrolled Senate. Legal scholars note the bills reliance on Bruens historyandtradition test, citing 19thcentury acceptance of multishot firearms. Opponents counter that modern 30round magazines enable higher casualty counts. If enacted, the FIREAct would also bar federal funds to any jurisdiction that enforces magazine limits and order ATF to expunge related records. The introduction comes as nine states plus the District of Columbia maintain 10 or 15round caps, several of which are already embroiled in postBruen litigation. Wieds office says the legislation would create a clear national standard while still allowing bans for certain felony offenders. Hearings are expected to spotlight differing data sets on capacity and lethality, with the Congressional Research Service preparing a rapid assessment. While the bills prospects remain uncertain, its introduction underscores a strategic pivot among progun lawmakers toward aggressive federal preemption rather than incremental statebystate challenges.
