Bill Summary
Firearm Safety and Public Health Research Act of 2013 - Makes prohibitions under the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2012, against the use of funds to advocate or promote gun control inapplicable to amounts made available by the Continuing Appropriations Resolution, 2013, insofar as such prohibitions relate to any activity to conduct research on firearms safety or gun violence.
AI Summary
This bill, titled the Firearm Safety and Public Health Research Act of 2013, aims to allow federal funds to be used for research on firearms safety and gun violence. It specifically amends the Continuing Appropriations Resolution, 2013, by making certain prohibitions found in the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2012, inapplicable. These prohibitions, which previously prevented the use of funds for advocating or promoting gun control, will no longer apply to research activities related to firearms safety or gun violence, thereby enabling such studies to be conducted with federal funding.
