Bill Summary

RESOLUTION Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 2377) to author- ize the issuance of extreme risk protection orders; pro- viding for consideration of the bill (H.R. 7910) to amend title 18, United States Code, to provide for an increased age limit on the purchase of certain firearms, prevent gun trafficking, modernize the prohibition on untraceable firearms, encourage the safe storage of firearms, and for other purposes; and for other purposes. .RH HR1153.

AI Summary

This Resolution sets the rules for considering two important bills in the House of Representatives: H.R. 2377, which would allow for the issuance of extreme risk protection orders (also known as red flag laws, allowing temporary removal of firearms from individuals deemed a danger to themselves or others), and H.R. 7910, which aims to strengthen gun safety by raising the age limit for purchasing certain firearms to 21, preventing gun trafficking, modernizing rules against untraceable firearms (ghost guns), and encouraging safe firearm storage. The resolution waives all points of order that could be raised against the consideration of these bills, meaning that procedural objections are set aside to allow for debate and votes. It also specifies that a particular version of each bill, as modified by the Rules Committee, will be considered as adopted, and that debate time and the ability to offer a motion to recommit (a procedural move to send a bill back to committee) will be limited. For H.R. 7910, there are additional procedures for voting on each title of the bill separately.
