A new national debate has emerged among states over whether to mandate or prohibit the use of special retail codes to track gun store sales. While California is implementing a law requiring credit card networks to provide specific codes for gun stores, states like Georgia, Iowa, Tennessee, and Wyoming are passing laws to ban the use of such codes. The issue highlights a division between Democratic lawmakers and gun-control activists supporting the tracking code for flagging suspicious purchases, and Republican lawmakers and gun-rights advocates concerned about potential infringement on gun buyers' rights.
