Tennessee has passed GOA-sponsored legislation to expand its Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act (PLCAA). This bill strengthens existing state law, creating incentives for firearms businesses to relocate to Tennessee and preventing state courts from recognizing anti-gun judgments from foreign courts or other states. The legislation aims to shield the firearms industry from what GOA describes as 'business-ending lawfare' and frivolous lawsuits.
