Florida takes action to Protect Consumers

Florida Has Just Issued A Brutal Response To Credit Card Companies….

"The state of Florida issued a warning in response to a plan by several large credit card companies, including Visa, Mastercard, and American Express, to implement a new identifying code system in order to track the sales of firearms and ammunition. If the plan is implemented, legislation will be passed to punish the companies for allegedly violating the second amendment’s protections.

Major credit card firms took action to develop “merchant codes” for firearms. The card firm stores your purchases, such as airline tickets, under a specific code so they can be found in their records. With merchant codes for firearms, this may both create a registry and provide the business the option to refuse a purchase, at their discretion.

As a result of the backlash, several Republican politicians, including Tennessee Attorney General Jonathan Skrmetti and Montana Attorney General Austin Knudsen, have issued statements warning companies that if they attempt to track gun purchases, investigations will be launched."

However, Florida is taking it a step further
