Whip Clark Statement Celebrating the Biden Administration’s New Rule Closing the Gun Show Loophole

Statement

Date: April 11, 2024
Location: Washington, D.C.
Issues: Guns

“The deadly gun show loophole is finally closed. President Biden’s announcement today honors the will of the vast majority of the American people. This is about common sense: no gun, anywhere, should trade hands for profit without a background check.

Thanks to the non-stop advocacy of survivors across the country, the leadership of the Biden-Harris Administration, and the persistence of Democrats in Congress, America has taken the greatest strides against gun violence that we’ve seen in three decades.

Now, Congress needs to build on that progress by fully closing the boyfriend loophole, enacting a nationwide red flag law, getting high-capacity magazines off the street, and reenacting the federal assault weapons ban.”
