Whereas President Biden’s Executive actions on pistol-braced 
firearms are an unconstitutional attack on Americans ex-
ercising 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 Ameri-
cans exercising their Second Amendment rights; 
Whereas President Biden has called for Congress to pass un-
constitutional 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
