- GUN BUYBACK PROGRAMS
- FIREARM BACKGROUND CHECKS
- I oppose reforming current firearm background checks policy and wish to donate resources to the campaign committee of Leader Charles Schumer (NY).
- I support revising background check requirements applicable to proposed firearm transfers from a licensed gun dealer to an unlicensed person by: 1.) Increasing the amount of time, from 3 business days to a minimum of 10 business days, that a federal firearms licensee must wait to receive a completed background check prior to transferring a firearm to an unlicensed person. 2.) Requiring the Government Accountability Office to report on the extent to which the changes have prevented firearms transfers to prohibited persons. 3.) Requiring the FBI to report on the number of petitions it receives for final federal firearms determinations. 4.) Modifying a particular category of prohibited persons (i.e., persons barred from receiving or possessing a firearm). Specifically, it replaces references to persons adjudicated as a mental defective with persons adjudicated with mental illness, severe developmental disability, or severe emotional instability. 5.) Requiring the Department of Justice to report on further amendments to the background check process that would likely reduce the risk of death or great bodily harm to victims of domestic violence, domestic abuse, dating partner violence, sexual assault, and stalking. And wish to donate resources to the campaign committee of Leader Charles Schumer (NY) and/or Rep. James Clyburn (SC), and/or to an advocate group currently working with this issue.
