Bill > S2732

This bill, the "End Gun Violence Act of 2023," aims to prohibit the sale or other disposition of any firearm or ammunition to any person who has been convicted of a violent misdemeanor within the preceding 5 years. The bill defines a "violent misdemeanor" as an offense that involves the use, attempted use, or threatened use of physical force or a deadly weapon, the intent to cause physical injury, or knowingly causing physical injury. The bill also includes various conforming amendments to align with this new prohibition, such as changes to the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act and the NICS Improvement Amendments Act of 2007.
