When Fed government fails - well, let's bribe the state governments then...

Because the federal government can't force states to comply with uploading requirements, it creates incentives like grants for states to do so. It also adds accountability measures like withholding political appointees bonuses for agencies that fail to do so. The bill also directs federal funds to ensure that domestic violence crimes are added to the background-check system.
This is the third attempt to fix the background-check reporting system since 1995. The NICS Improvement Amendments Act of 2007 provided millions to encourage the states to improve their data sharing. That was preceded by The National Criminal History Improvement Program, the first effort to give the states an incentive to report more records.

Another example of why another law, and more government should be the last option considered. More tax dollars down the tube, and as usual - no accountability. "Withholding bonuses" when jail is in order is not holding violators accountable.
