Extreme Risk Protection Order Expansion Act of 2023

The Extreme Risk Protection Order Expansion Act of 2023 creates a federal grant program to help states, tribes, and local governments implement and improve Extreme Risk Protection Orders (ERPOs), which temporarily remove firearms from individuals deemed to pose a danger to themselves or others. To qualify for grants, states and tribes must enact ERPO laws meeting specific due process requirements, including notice, hearing procedures, and standards of proof. The bill amends federal law to include ERPOs in the National Instant Criminal Background Check System and requires states to report on ERPO usage, including demographic data. It also establishes "full faith and credit" for ERPOs across state lines, ensuring consistent enforcement nationwide.
