The purpose of this legislation, known as the "Equal Shot Act of 2025," is to ensure that businesses involved in the firearms industry receive fair and equal treatment when applying for financial assistance from the Small Business Administration (SBA). The act aims to prevent discrimination against these businesses in the application process for loans and other forms of support. Key provisions of the act include a clear directive that the SBA cannot implement any policies or practices that would discriminate against applicants from the firearms industry.
