EMBARGOED UNTIL THE START OF THE PRESIDENT’S REMARKS

Today, the President is announcing that he and the Administration will:

1.    Issue a Presidential Memorandum to require federal agencies to make relevant
      data available to the federal background check system.
2.    Address unnecessary legal barriers, particularly relating to the Health Insurance
      Portability and Accountability Act, that may prevent states from making
      information available to the background check system.
3.    Improve incentives for states to share information with the background check
      system.
4.    Direct the Attorney General to review categories of individuals prohibited from
      having a gun to make sure dangerous people are not slipping through the cracks.
5.    Propose rulemaking to give law enforcement the ability to run a full background
      check on an individual before returning a seized gun.
6.    Publish a letter from ATF to federally licensed gun dealers providing guidance on
      how to run background checks for private sellers.
7.    Launch a national safe and responsible gun ownership campaign.
8.    Review safety standards for gun locks and gun safes (Consumer Product Safety
      Commission).
9.    Issue a Presidential Memorandum to require federal law enforcement to trace guns
      recovered in criminal investigations.
10.   Release a DOJ report analyzing information on lost and stolen guns and make it
      widely available to law enforcement.
11.   Nominate an ATF director.
12.   Provide law enforcement, first responders, and school officials with proper
      training for active shooter situations.
13.   Maximize enforcement efforts to prevent gun violence and prosecute gun crime.
14.   Issue a Presidential Memorandum directing the Centers for Disease Control to
      research the causes and prevention of gun violence.
15.   Direct the Attorney General to issue a report on the availability and most effective
      use of new gun safety technologies and challenge the private sector to develop
      innovative technologies.
16.   Clarify that the Affordable Care Act does not prohibit doctors asking their patients
      about guns in their homes.
17.   Release a letter to health care providers clarifying that no federal law prohibits
      them from reporting threats of violence to law enforcement authorities.
18.   Provide incentives for schools to hire school resource officers.
EMBARGOED


19.   Develop model emergency response plans for schools, houses of worship and
      institutions of higher education.
