Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives regarding the relationships between firearm violence, misogyny, and violence against women, and reaffirming the importance of preventing individuals with a history of violence against women from accessing a firearm.

HRES 827 is a non-binding House resolution expressing concern about the link between firearm violence, misogyny, and violence against women. It highlights that current federal law bans guns for domestic abusers only if they are married to or have children with their partner, leaving dating partners unprotected - a gap sometimes called the "boyfriend loophole." The resolution cites statistics showing domestic abusers with gun access are 5 times more likely to kill partners and that firearm-related domestic violence is 12 times more likely to be fatal. It urges further research into these connections and supports policies to prevent abusers from accessing firearms, referencing recent tragedies and studies.
