ID SJM104

Urges the United States Congress to pass the Hearing Protection Act, which would reclassify firearm suppressors to regulate them like regular firearms rather than heavily restricted National Firearms Act devices.

Notes that suppressors are safety tools that reduce gunfire noise to prevent hearing loss, improve marksmanship accuracy, and allow shooting ranges to be better neighbors.

Identifies current suppressor regulation under the 1934 National Firearms Act requires a mandatory $200 tax and stamp, with processing times up to 270 days, restricting law-abiding gun owners' access to hearing protection equipment.

States that removing suppressors from National Firearms Act regulation would not pose a public safety threat and would reduce the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms' administrative workload, allowing resources to focus on reducing violent crime.

Directs the Secretary of the Senate to forward copies of this memorial to the President of the Senate, Speaker of the House of Representatives, and Idaho's congressional delegation.
