Gun violence is a statewide problem in Missouri. After 20+ years in power, lax gun laws passed by Republicans have made Missouri far less safe. In fact, using the most recent data from 2022, the CDC ranks Missouri fifth in the nation in firearm deaths per capita. That's unacceptable.

From extreme risk protection orders to mandated reporting on lost or stolen firearms, Missouri Democrats have filed legislation that will save lives and bring common sense back to our gun laws while respecting Second Amendment rights.
