Citigroup Reverses Firearms Policy Amid Conservative Pressure
In a significant policy shift, Citigroup has lifted its restrictions on banking relationships with gun makers and sellers, following pressure from the Trump administration and accusations of discrimination against conservatives. The bank has decided to roll back its stance on firearms sales policies implemented after major shootings, particularly the Florida school shooting. This move includes the cessation of requirements for clients to limit their gun sales, indicating a broader trend of revising banking policies concerning firearms and political affiliations.
