Up to $50 million a year for CDC research on gun safety and preventing gun violence, through 2031

The details

Most people would see no direct change in daily life. The bill lets Congress fund research on gun safety and on ways to prevent gun violence. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) would do or pay for the studies. Congress could spend up to $50 million a year on this work, for budget years 2026 through 2031. That adds up to $300 million over six years. The money would come on top of any other funds already allowed for this research. Congress would still have to approve the actual money each year in a spending bill. The bill sets no new rules for people who own, buy, or sell guns.
