Which federal law affects gun ownership and possession for individuals convicted of domestic violence in South Dakota?

  1. The Brady Bill

  2. The Violence Against Women Act

  3. The Lautenberg Amendment

  4. The Gun Control Act of 1968

The correct answer is: The Lautenberg Amendment

The correct answer is "The Lautenberg Amendment." This federal law, also known as the Domestic Violence Offender Gun Ban, prohibits individuals convicted of misdemeanor domestic violence from owning or possessing firearms. It is crucial in preventing those who have committed domestic violence from having access to guns, thereby enhancing the safety of potential victims. The other options mentioned have significant impacts on gun control and related matters, but they do not specifically address gun ownership for individuals convicted of domestic violence like the Lautenberg Amendment does.
