Gun Violence Prevention Research Act of 2023

This bill authorizes $50 million annually from 2024 through 2029 for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to conduct or support research on firearms safety and gun violence prevention. The funding is specifically for studies under the Public Health Service Act, adding to existing research budgets rather than replacing them. It directly affects CDC researchers and public health agencies by providing dedicated resources to study gun violence causes and prevention strategies. The bill creates no new regulations or requirements, only enabling research to inform future policy decisions.
