President Biden's administration has proposed a potentially revolutionary gun safety law that could enhance the safety of our communities by expanding background checks for firearm purchases — including those made online and at gun shows, which have historically been exempt from background checks. This law would be groundbreaking, but to truly end the crisis of gun violence in this country, we must also enact a comprehensive ban on assault weapons. If you agree that we must close the "gun show loophole" and ban assault weapons, sign on to our petition today. Biden's proposal, based on the 2022 Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, would close the "gun show loophole" that has allowed an untold number of firearms to be sold without any background checks. This lack of oversight has enabled the unchecked sale of weapons at gun shows, online, and out of private homes for far too long. Here's what the new proposal entails: - Licensing Requirements: Sellers who profit from gun sales must now be licensed and adherent to regulations.
- Universal Background Checks: Background checks are required for buyers at all sales points, now including firearms shows and online retailers.
- Public Safety Impact: This rule is set to affect over 20,000 unlicensed gun dealers and regulate tens of thousands of gun sales annually.
We all know that there is widespread popular support for stringent background checks, but conservative lobbying groups and misconceptions regarding gun rights have blocked them from being implemented. This proposal would respect safe, responsible gun ownership while cracking down on the illegal and unsafe practices that endanger our communities. Sign the petition to President Biden: Close the gun show loophole and ban assault weapons to ensure a safer future for everyone!
