                               RESOLUTION


 
  Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that President 
Biden's gun policies are unconstitutional and should never be approved.

Whereas the right of the people to keep and bear arms is enshrined in our 
        Constitution as the Second Amendment;
Whereas our Nation's Founders believed this right to be fundamental for 
        Americans to protect themselves and the state of freedom;
Whereas President Biden has directly attacked this right by issuing numerous 
        Executive orders and calling for stricter gun control policies;
Whereas President Biden's Executive actions on pistol-braced firearms are an 
        unconstitutional attack on Americans exercising their Second Amendment 
        rights;
Whereas President Biden's Executive actions on homemade firearms, such as 3D 
        printed firearm files or unfinished receiver blanks, are an 
        unconstitutional attack on Americans exercising their Second Amendment 
        rights;
Whereas President Biden has called for Congress to pass unconstitutional laws 
        requiring background checks on all firearm transfers, unconstitutionally 
        banning ``assault weapons'' and ``high-capacity magazines'', and holding 
        law-abiding gun manufacturers liable for the acts of criminals;
Whereas President Biden's gun restriction proposals would effectively ban 
        commonly owned firearms and magazines used for lawful purposes;
Whereas President Biden's gun restriction proposals would criminalize private 
        firearm transfers; and
Whereas President Biden's gun restriction proposals would seek to hold gun 
        manufacturers and dealers civilly liable, encouraging abuse of the court 
        system to drive them out of business through meritless litigation: Now, 
        therefore, be it
    Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Representatives 
that--
            (1) it should be the policy of the United States to 
        strengthen the Second Amendment rights of Americans and prevent 
        the potential erosion of these rights; and
            (2) Congress should never stop fighting to protect the 
        Second Amendment.
