Bill introduced in Congress — not yet passed by either chamber, and not law.

Gun Violence Prevention and Public Safety Database Act of 2026

Key claim: The Gun Violence Prevention and Public Safety Database Act of 2026 (HR9274) was referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, proposing a federal database related to gun violence prevention.

Abstract

(HR9274 · 119th Congress) Latest action (2026-06-11): Referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce.

Why this matters

A federal gun violence prevention database would formalize data infrastructure supporting public safety research and policy evaluation, an area historically constrained by limited federal data collection. The bill is at an early stage (referral) and its scope, privacy safeguards, and access rules will determine its practical effect on affected communities, researchers, and law enforcement.
