As incidents of gun violence increase in the United States, many citizens, activists and lawmakers across the country have called for a change in gun laws. Alabama’s political parties remain split over gun rights and gun control.
, we searched the text of all bills containing the words “gun” or “firearm.” After pulling the bills, we read them to determine whether they would change existing policy relating to purchasing, possessing, owning or operating guns in Alabama. Bills that did not change such laws were excluded, and those left are bills that propose changes to existing gun laws.In Alabama, a bill is filed and given a number, then it’s introduced in its respective chamber .
If a bill is reported favorably, it’s put on the regular calendar. Bills on the regular calendar are eligible for a third read and a vote. If they pass, they move on to the next chamber and repeat the process. Bills must be passed by both chambers and be signed by Gov. Kay Ivey in order to become law.If a committee chairman receives a written request, bills can get a public hearing in committee, where residents can come speak to lawmakers directly.
