HF924 lowers the minimum age for acquiring or carrying weapons from 21 to 18.

The Iowa State Senate passed HF924 on April 7, 2025 by a vote of 33 to 14. We have assigned pluses to the ayes because this bill would remove the state’s minimum age requirement that prevents a person younger than 21 from purchasing a firearm, which is both unconstitutional and more restrictive than current federal law. The Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution assures that the right of the American people “to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”
