In the wake of the “March For Our Lives” rally Saturday, and with no legislative appetite for more gun control laws, Democrats in both the House and Senate have introduced a bill requiring background checks for purchasing bullets.

“You do not have the right to bear bullets,” said Congresswoman and former Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz at a press conference Monday announcing the introduction of a bill that would require instant background checks to purchase ammunition.

The Ammunition Background Check Act was introduced by Wasserman Schultz in the House and Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) in the Senate. Like its name implies, it would require anyone looking to buy bullets to be subjected to background checks, similar to the one required to purchase a firearm in the first place.

Without background checks on ammunition sales, there’s nothing to stop dangerous people – barred from buying guns – from amassing vast ammunition arsenals. This ludicrous loophole puts lives at risk. — Richard Blumenthal (@SenBlumenthal) March 26, 2018

I’m introducing the Ammunition Background Check Act w/ @DWStweets. This commonsense measure will enforce federal law by requiring background checks on sales of ammunition. — Richard Blumenthal (@SenBlumenthal) March 26, 2018

Background checks on ammunition sales will make it harder for dangerous people to circumvent law and acquire the resources to commit gun violence. We should pass this simple, commonsense fix right away. — Richard Blumenthal (@SenBlumenthal) March 26, 2018

Wasserman Schultz said, “I really think it’s important to underscore that without bullets a gun is just a hunk of useless metal, and a would-be killer lacks the means to actually kill or maim.”

The Florida congresswoman called the ability to buy ammunition a “loophole” in gun control laws.

The Ammunition Background Check Act was introduced with 36 co-sponsors, all Democrats.
