What’s happening with Traveler’s Gun Rights Act?

As of June 10, 2026, the Traveler's Gun Rights Act remains in the House and Senate Judiciary Committees where it has sat since March 10, 2025. Committee members must choose to hold a vote to move these bills forward, but most legislation ends due to committee inaction rather than a formal vote. Similar efforts failed to pass in the 118th Congress, reflecting the common difficulty of advancing this policy through the committee process.
