SB 275 Connecticut Senate · 2025 Regular Session

AN ACT REQUIRING A STUDY OF BACKGROUND CHECK ERRORS.

SB 275 requires the Special Licensing and Firearms Unit of the Department of Emergency Services and Public Protection to study errors in background checks that miss disqualifying convictions (such as those caused by record gaps or system flaws). The unit must report its findings to the General Assembly's Public Safety committee by October 1, 2025. This study aims to identify systemic issues that could allow individuals with certain convictions to wrongfully obtain firearm permits.
