Biden administration proposes expanding background checks on gun sales to close loopholes

  • The proposed rule aims to require more gun sellers to obtain federal licenses and conduct background checks.
  • It would apply to sellers at gun shows, flea markets, online, and other informal venues.
  • The goal is to close the "gun show loophole" and expand checks to more sales.
  • The rule implements bipartisan gun safety legislation passed in 2022.
  • It will undergo a 90-day public comment period before being finalized.
