Gun Violence Prevention Research Act of 2025

This bill authorizes $50 million annually from 2026 through 2031 for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to fund research on firearms safety and gun violence prevention. It directly affects the CDC and researchers by providing dedicated funding to study these topics under the Public Health Service Act. The key mechanism is a specific annual funding allocation, added to existing resources, to support new or ongoing research initiatives. The bill does not create new regulations or restrict gun ownership but focuses solely on enabling evidence-based research. This is a funding measure, not a policy change affecting the public directly.
