Excerpt:
In a historic and tightly contested vote, the U.S. House of Representatives passed H.R. 1—the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act”—by a single vote, 215-214. Included in the bill is the full removal of suppressors from the National Firearms Act (NFA), eliminating the $200 tax and federal registration process that have long restricted suppressor ownership in the United States.
The provision, based on Section 2 of the Hearing Protection Act, removes suppressors from the NFA’s definition of a firearm, and sets the transfer and making tax at $0. If signed into law, this change would make suppressors available through the standard NICS background check system—no more tax stamps, no more ATF registration, and no more months-long wait times.
Final House Vote Breakdown:
- Republicans: 215 Yea, 2 Nay, 1 Present, 1 Not Voting
- Democrats: 212 Nay
- Total: 215 Yea, 214 Nay, 1 Present, 1 Not Voting
