flag Pennsylvania advances gun safety bills including bans on undetectable guns and Red Flag laws, but faces partisan hurdles in the Senate.

flag The Pennsylvania House Judiciary Committee advanced a package of gun safety bills on September 22, 2025, including bans on undetectable firearms and devices that convert semi-automatic weapons into machine guns, universal background checks for all gun purchases, and Extreme Risk Protection Orders—commonly known as Red Flag laws. flag The measures, aimed at reducing gun violence while respecting Second Amendment rights, passed without Republican support and now move to the full House. flag Opponents, including Rep. Robert Leadbeter, argue Red Flag laws undermine due process, and past efforts have stalled in the Republican-led Senate. flag The legislation faces an uncertain future amid partisan divisions, with Senate leaders favoring mental health-focused solutions over new firearm restrictions.
