the United States Fish and Wildlife Service. 
‘‘(3) The regulations described in paragraph (2) prevent individuals 
complying with Federal and State laws from exercising the second 
amendment rights of the individuals while at units of the National 
Wildlife Refuge System. 
‘‘(4) The existence of different laws relating to the transportation 
and possession of firearms at different units of the National Wildlife 
Refuge System entrapped law-abiding gun owners while at units of the 
National Wildlife Refuge System. 
‘‘(5) Although the Bush administration issued new regulations relat-
ing to the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding citizens in units 
of the National Wildlife Refuge System that went into effect on Janu-
ary 9, 2009— 
‘‘(A) on March 19, 2009, the United States District Court for 
the District of Columbia granted a preliminary injunction with re-
spect to the implementation and enforcement of the new regula-
tions; and 
‘‘(B) the new regulations— 
‘‘(i) are under review by the administration; and 
‘‘(ii) may be altered. 
‘‘(6) Congress needs to weigh in on the new regulations to ensure 
that unelected bureaucrats and judges cannot again override the Sec-
ond Amendment rights of law-abiding citizens on 90,790,000 acres of 
land under the jurisdiction of the United States Fish and Wildlife Serv-
ice. 
‘‘(7) Federal laws should make it clear that the second amendment 
rights of an individual at a unit of the National Wildlife Refuge System 
should not be infringed. 
‘‘(b) PROTECTING THE RIGHT OF INDIVIDUALS TO BEAR ARMS IN UNITS 
OF THE NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE SYSTEM.——The Secretary shall 
not promulgate or enforce any regulation that prohibits an individual from 
possessing a firearm, including an assembled or functional firearm, in any 
unit of the National Wildlife Refuge System if— 
‘‘(1) the individual is not otherwise prohibited by law from pos-
sessing the firearm; and 
‘‘(2) the possession of the firearm is in compliance with the law of 
the State in which the unit of the National Wildlife Refuge System is 
located.’’.

places.
