Federal courts could issue orders to temporarily remove guns from dangerous individuals.
This bill would create a new federal process allowing family members or law enforcement to ask a court to temporarily take guns from individuals who pose a serious risk to themselves or others. It also sets up a grant program to help states and tribes create similar programs and ensures these orders are recognized nationwide.
Today, there is no federal process for extreme risk protection orders that would temporarily stop individuals deemed a risk from having firearms. States and Indian Tribes may have their own laws, but there's no federal grant program to support them or a federal rule for recognizing these orders across state lines. This bill would create a federal court process for issuing such orders and would establish a grant program to help states and Indian Tribes implement their own laws, requiring them to allocate between 25 percent and 70 percent of grant funds for law enforcement training. It would also mandate that qualifying state and tribal orders be recognized nationwide.
