H.R. 9013 — Fireworks Trafficking and Money Laundering Prevention Act

This section states congressional findings that illegal fireworks trafficking involves interstate transport and sale of explosives in violation of federal and state law, generates illicit proceeds often tied to money laundering and organized crime, causes thousands of injuries and deaths annually, and evades effective prosecution due to a one-year maximum prison term.

This section designates violations of section 836 of title 18, United States Code, relating to unlawful interstate transportation of fireworks, as specified unlawful activity for purposes of the money laundering statute under 18 U.S.C. § 1956.
