Before you vote
Congress (Sen. Chris Murphy D-CT, Sen. John Cornyn R-TX lead negotiators): 1 PolicyBomb on record
No full scorecard rows yet. Their documented positions are listed below, each with its source and that PolicyBomb's grade. They are not counted in a tally until the full row (author, votes, signer, funders) is sourced.
Grades rest on measured outcomes in each PolicyBomb, not on motives. Every line links to its receipt.
Positions on record
As recorded in each PolicyBomb's "who supports / who opposes" research. Not counted in the tally.
Policy #54: Gun Control Mixed
For: Bipartisan Safer Communities Act signed Jun 25, 2022; Senate 65-33 with 15 Republicans; House 234-193 with 14 Republicans. Congress.gov: S.2938 Bipartisan Safer Communities Act (congress.gov)
Verdict: Targeted access laws (licensing, waiting periods, child-access prevention, red-flag orders) are good policy on the evidence and fit the Bruen and Rahimi framework. Assault weapons bans use a lot of political capital for unproven gains.
