Blocks gun sales to people with court orders prohibiting firearm possession during pretrial release.
This bill would make sure that people who are out on pretrial release and have a court order saying they can't have guns would be blocked from buying them through federal background checks. It changes federal law to add this group to the list of people who cannot legally buy firearms. States and Tribes could also get money to help report these orders.
Today, federal background checks do not explicitly block gun sales to people who have a court order prohibiting them from having firearms during their pretrial release. If this bill becomes law, federal law would explicitly add these individuals to the list of people who cannot legally buy or own firearms, and the national background check system would be updated to reflect this.
