Biden signs Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, most significant gun safety law in 30 years

President Biden signs the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, the most significant federal gun safety legislation since 1994. The bill includes enhanced background checks for gun buyers under 21, funding for state red flag laws, provisions to address gun trafficking, and closes the boyfriend loophole. It also invests $15 billion in mental health services and school safety programs. The legislation passes with bipartisan support after negotiations led by Senator Chris Murphy following mass shootings in Buffalo and Uvalde, Texas.
