Plain-English Summary
This bill would allow the federal government to fund scientific research on gun violence, its causes, and potential prevention methods—something that has been severely restricted for decades. The funding would support studies by universities, hospitals, and public health organizations to better understand what drives gun deaths and injuries and what policies or programs might reduce them. This would affect public health researchers, medical institutions, and potentially policymakers who use research findings to inform gun safety decisions.
