Based on the full Introduced in House · 2026-10-01 text. This explanation has not received human editorial review. This overview describes the proposal’s major provisions; it does not establish what its real-world effects would be.
What it would do
The bill would create a federal system where victims of specified federal crimes could sign up for alerts about an offender’s prohibited firearm purchase attempts and certain changes in firearm eligibility. It would also authorize grants for a State and Tribal pilot program for domestic violence victims, including people protected by qualifying court orders. Participation would be voluntary. The bill would preserve firearm activity otherwise permitted by law; it proposes notification systems rather than new firearm bans.
Check the sources
establish a firearms access victim notification system to notify crime victims (as defined in section 3771(e)(2)) harmed by offenses under section 117, 1591, 2261, 2261A, or 2262 (hereinafter referred to as crime victims) who have registered to be notified, as provided by this section, of firearms-related activity by the offender. This system shall allow victims of such crimes to register for notifications and to deregister at will.
The Attorney General, acting through the Office on Victims of Crime, shall make grants to eligible entities to upgrade the victim notification systems of the eligible entities to carry out the activities described in subsection (c).
The term victim— (A) means a victim of a prohibiting domestic violence offense; (B) includes an individual protected by a prohibiting domestic violence court order;
Nothing in this Act, or the amendments made by this Act, shall be construed to affect an individual’s right to possess, receive, ship, or transport a firearm that is otherwise permitted by law.
Section 2 would require the Federal Bureau of Investigation to establish the federal notification system in consultation with relevant State, local and Tribal agencies. Eligibility would depend on the referenced federal victim definition and five listed federal offense provisions. Victim information could be used only for firearm-access notifications.
Check the sources
The Federal Bureau of Investigation shall, in consultation with appropriate State, local, and Tribal agencies, including agencies responsible for management of criminal history records and victim notification systems, establish a firearms access victim notification system to notify crime victims (as defined in section 3771(e)(2)) harmed by offenses under section 117, 1591, 2261, 2261A, or 2262
Federal firearm-activity notifications would stop applying when the offender receives a pardon or restoration of rights for the offense underlying the victim’s registration. A pardon or restoration for a different offense would not end those notifications.
Check the source
Notification to a crime victim under subparagraph (A) shall— (i) not apply with respect to firearms-related activity by an offender who has received a pardon or restoration of rights with respect to the offense pursuant to which the crime victim registered to receive such notifications; and (ii) still apply with respect to firearms-related activity by an offender who has received a pardon or restoration of rights with respect to an offense other than the offense pursuant to which the crime victim registered to receive such notifications.
Legal guardians and other legally permitted representatives could register, withdraw and receive federal alerts for victims under 18 or victims who are incompetent or incapacitated. An offender against the victim could not act as that representative.
Check the sources
In the event that a crime victim is under 18 years of age, incompetent, or incapacitated, the victim notification system under paragraph (1) shall allow the legal guardians of the crime victim, or any other persons permitted by law to represent the crime victim, to register and deregister for notification and send relevant notifications to such legal guardian or representative as if such legal guardian or representative were a crime victim for purposes of the victim notification system.
In no event shall an offender against a crime victim be permitted to serve as the legal guardian or representative for the crime victim under subparagraph (A).
Existing registration in the referenced Victim Notification System would suffice to verify federal eligibility; otherwise, applicants would need the information the Attorney General requires. Once a victim registers, the new system would send the covered offenders’ names to the National Instant Criminal Background Check System, the federal firearm background-check system.
Check the sources
(A) registration with the Victim Notification System established under section 20101(d) of title 34, United States Code, shall be sufficient to verify an individual’s eligibility to register under this section; or (B) all information necessary, as determined by the Attorney General, to verify the eligibility of such individual to register to be notified under subsection (a).
Upon registration of a crime victim under subsection (a), the firearms access victim notification system shall provide to the National Instant Criminal Background Check System the names of any offender against such crime victim covered by subsection (a)(1).
A federal background check requested by a licensed firearm importer, manufacturer or dealer would trigger a report of an attempted acquisition when it determines that a covered offender could not lawfully receive the firearm.
Check the source
In the case of a background check on an offender described in subsection (a)(1) conducted by the National Instant Criminal Background Check System established under section 103 of the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act (34 U.S.C. 40901), pursuant to the request of a licensed importer, licensed manufacturer, or licensed dealer of firearms, that determines the receipt of a firearm by the individual would be unlawful: (A) The National Instant Criminal Background System shall notify the firearms access victim notification system of the attempted firearm acquisition.
If the unlawful-receipt determination comes after the applicable transfer-delay period and the firearm has already been transferred, the federal background-check system would report that the offender possesses a firearm. The text uses three business days, a longer applicable State period, or the referenced special period for people under 21. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives would report retrieval of the transferred firearm.
Check the source
If such determination is made after 3 business days, or more than 3 days if the number of days under State law within which the determination must be made is greater, after which time a firearm can be transferred, or, in the case that the offender is less than 21 years of age, the number of days under section 103(l) of the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act (34 U.S.C. 40901(l)) within which the determination must be made, have elapsed since the licensee contacted the system and a firearm has been transferred to that offender— (i) the National Instant Criminal Background System shall notify the firearms access victim notification system that the offender possesses a firearm; and (ii) the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives shall notify the firearms access victim notification system upon retrieval of firearms transferred as described in this subsection.
A Federal law enforcement agency would report an arrest it makes resulting from the attempted acquisition. The background-check system would also report a denial reversed on appeal, explaining when the reversal occurred because the buyer was not the offender.
Check the source
(C) If an attempted firearm acquisition results in the arrest of the offender by a Federal law enforcement agency, the agency shall notify the firearms access victim notification system. (D) If such determination is reversed upon appeal, the National Instant Criminal Background Check System shall notify the firearms access victim notification system. In the event that the reversal is due to a finding that the individual who attempted to purchase the firearm was not the offender, the notification shall include the reason for the reversal.
The Office of the Pardon Attorney would report Presidential pardons for offenses under sections 1591, 2261, 2261A and 2262. That reporting list omits section 117, although victims harmed by section 117 offenses are included in federal system eligibility; the supplied text does not explain the difference. The Attorney General would report successful applications or petitions under section 925(c) for relief from firearm restrictions. Victim notices about pardons or relief would explain that the affected offense no longer bars firearm possession, while other offenses might still do so.
Check the sources
crime victims (as defined in section 3771(e)(2)) harmed by offenses under section 117, 1591, 2261, 2261A, or 2262
(2) Pardons In the case of a Presidential pardon of an offender for an offense under section 1591, 2261, 2261A, or 2262, the Office of the Pardon Attorney of the Department of Justice shall notify the firearms access victim notification system. (3) Relief from disabilities In the case of a successful application or petition for relief from disabilities under section 925(c), the Attorney General shall notify the firearms access victim notification system.
In the case of a notification under subsection (c)(2) or (c)(3), the notification shall include a statement that the pardoned or relieved individual is no longer prohibited from possessing firearms due to the pardoned offense or offense for which the individual successfully applied or petitioned for relief under section 925(c), although the individual may be prohibited due to other offenses.
The federal system would notify the victim upon receiving the specified reports and include the referenced family-violence hotline’s contact information. Information received from the federal background-check system could be retained for no more than 24 hours after the victim notification is issued.
Check the sources
The firearms access victim notification system shall notify the crime victim upon receipt of information described in subsection (c)(1), (c)(2), or (c)(3).
A notification issued pursuant this paragraph shall include contact information for the hotline described in section 313 of the Family Violence Prevention and Services Act (42 U.S.C. 10413).
The firearms access victim notification system shall retain any information transmitted from the National Instant Background Check System pursuant to subsection (c) for no longer than 24 hours following the issuance of a notification to a crime victim under paragraph (1).
Federal registrants would receive annual reminders. The Attorney General would conduct outreach, prosecutors would explain registration and withdrawal after a qualifying conviction, and victims would learn at registration which purchase attempts trigger alerts.
Check the sources
The firearms access victim notification shall annually send a notice to crime victims to inform them that they are registered to receive notifications under this section.
The Attorney General shall conduct necessary outreach to victims of crimes described in section 117, 1591, 2261, 2261A, or 2262, to educate crime victims about their right to register or deregister for the firearms access victim notification system. Upon the conviction of an offender for 1 or more of these crimes, the prosecuting attorney shall notify the crime victim of their ability to register or deregister for the firearms access victim notification system. Crime victims shall be informed upon registration with the firearms access victim notification system of the conditions under which an attempt by an offender or respondent to purchase a firearm will result in the crime victim receiving a notification.
Section 3 would require the Attorney General, through the Office on Victims of Crime, to award pilot-program grants to States or Tribes with victim notification systems. Selection would seek a diverse mix of jurisdictions where practicable, to assess issues and the usefulness of permanent programs.
Check the sources
The term eligible entity means a State or Tribe with a victim notification system.
The Attorney General, acting through the Office on Victims of Crime, shall make grants to eligible entities to upgrade the victim notification systems of the eligible entities to carry out the activities described in subsection (c).
shall, to the extent practicable, select a diverse mix of eligible entities so as to maximize the ability of the grants, on the whole, to help identify issues and determine the efficacy of permanent programs in all jurisdictions.
The pilot defines covered offenders to include people convicted of domestic violence offenses that restrict firearm access, and people under indictment for domestic violence offenses punishable by more than one year in prison. It also covers people subject to qualifying domestic violence court orders, including orders that restrict firearm access under applicable law or their own terms.

Pilot-program victims would include victims of qualifying domestic violence offenses and people protected by qualifying orders. A minor’s legal guardian or authorized representative could participate, except an offender against that minor or a person subject to a qualifying order for an offense against the minor.
Check the source

Pilot systems would need to match victim data with offender or respondent data and protect victim confidentiality. Firearm-activity notifications would not apply after a pardon or restoration of rights for the registration offense, but would continue when the pardon or restoration concerns a different offense.
Check the sources

(i) does not apply with respect to firearms-related activity by an offender who has received a pardon or restoration of rights with respect to the offense pursuant to which the victim registered to receive such notifications; and (ii) still applies with respect to firearms-related activity by an offender who has received a pardon or restoration of rights with respect to an offense other than the offense pursuant to which the victim registered to receive such notifications.
Pilot participants could enroll or withdraw at any time, would receive annual reminders, and would be told which purchase attempts trigger notices. Victims enrolled because of an offender’s incarceration could choose to remain enrolled after the sentence ends. System development would involve domestic violence coalitions, service providers and culturally specific programs.
Check the sources
(I) be able to voluntarily register for or deregister from at any time; (II) be given the option to remain registered with the system upon the completion of the sentence of the offender in the case of a prohibiting domestic violence offense if the victims were added to the victim notification system due to the incarceration of the offender; (III) be informed upon registration with the system of the conditions under which an attempt by an offender or respondent to purchase a firearm will result in the victim receiving a notification; and (IV) receive annual notice that they are registered to receive notifications through the victim notification system;

The pilot’s reporting mechanism would also cover firearms transferred before a late denial, their retrieval, and arrests of offenders resulting from attempted acquisition. The late-denial rule uses three business days, a longer applicable State period, or the referenced period for people under 21.
Check the sources
(II) a firearm has been transferred to the offender or respondent if the determination described in subclause (I) is made after— (aa) 3 business days; (bb) more than 3 business days if the number of days under State law within which the determination must be made is greater, after which time a firearm can be transferred have elapsed since the licensee contacted the system or State agency; or (cc) in the case the offender or respondent is less than 21 years of age, the number of days under section 103(l) of the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act (34 U.S.C. 40901(l)) within which the determination must be made;
