This bill, known as the Extreme Risk Protection Order Expansion Act of 2025, aims to support state, tribal, and local efforts to remove access to firearms from individuals deemed a danger to themselves or others. Here’s a summary of its key provisions:

1. Definition of Terms

Several key definitions are provided, including:

  • Eligible Entity: States, Indian Tribes, local governments, or public/private entities that enact legislation in accordance with the bill's provisions.

2. Grant Program

The bill establishes a grant program administered by the Attorney General to provide funding to eligible entities. The purpose of these grants includes:

  • Enhancing law enforcement and court capacities.
  • Training personnel to identify individuals at risk of harm due to access to firearms.
  • Developing protocols for implementing ERPOs safely and effectively.
  • Raising public awareness about ERPOs.

3. Requirements for Legislation

To receive funding, states and tribal jurisdictions must enact legislation that includes:

  • Procedures for petitioning for an ERPO.
  • Notice and due process for individuals named in petitions.
  • Establishment of factors for courts to consider before issuing ERPOs.

6. National Database Inclusion

The bill requires that extreme risk protection orders be included in national crime information databases to ensure consistent enforcement across jurisdictions.

7. Full Faith and Credit
