Vote Data for HR8 (117th Congress)


Date: March 11, 2021

Subject: Establishing a Costly and Burdensome Barrier to Exercise Second Amendment Rights via the "Bipartisan Background Checks Act"

Description: The so-called Bipartisan Background Checks Act of 2021, sponsored by Rep. Thompson (D-CA), would make it more difficult for law-abiding citizens to exercise their Second Amendment rights by mandating "universal" background checks for nearly all private firearm sales and transfers. As a result, individuals privately selling a firearm would be forced to conduct the sale through a federal firearms licensee (FFL) and pay any fees charged by the FFL dealer. ACU recognizes that countless studies have found no correlation between imposing universal background checks and reducing unlawful usage of firearms. These sorts of legislative barriers do nothing to stop criminals from engaging in additional criminal behaviors; they just make it more difficult for law-abiding citizens who are not committing crimes to exercise their constitutional rights.

Result: Bill Passed, 227-203
