S 5055 United States Senate · 118th Congress

Armed Forces Crisis Intervention Notification Act

This bill requires the Department of Defense to mandate all military branches (Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Space Force) to use state extreme risk protection order (ERPO) programs when a commanding officer determines a service member poses a threat. It directly affects service members deemed "covered individuals" (those making serious threats of violence or meeting specific federal firearm restrictions). Key mechanisms include requiring military branches to share relevant facts with courts (overriding some privacy rules) and actively participate in ERPO proceedings to temporarily remove firearms during crises. The policy aims to integrate military crisis response with state gun safety measures without altering federal law.
