On August 17, 2026, Attorney General Todd Blanche announced that the Justice Department finalized a rule reestablishing an application process for restoration of federal firearm rights lost due to felony convictions. The rule implements the statutory mechanism in 18 U.S.C. § 925(c), which had been unavailable due to congressional funding restrictions since 1992. Available reporting is limited to two right-leaning outlets and leaves multiple operational and legal details unverified.
