Senate Considers Bill to Expand Right to Bear Arms and Legal Fallout from Supreme Court Decision.

Senate Republicans, led by Sen. Lindsey Graham, have introduced legislation to codify the right of Americans to own guns and use them for self-defense outside their homes, citing two key gun rights cases. President Biden has called for further gun control legislation, including a federal assault weapons ban, and recently announced an executive order expanding background checks for gun purchases. Republicans argue that the proposed legislation is necessary to protect the Second Amendment, while Democrats argue for stricter gun control measures.
