Evidence

Congresswoman Lois Frankel announced she is supporting additional measures to reduce gun violence and said she is co-sponsoring the Assault Weapons Ban of 2013, which bans the future sale, transfer, manufacture, and importation of semi-automatic weapons and high-capacity magazines. She also said she was co-sponsoring the Large Capacity Ammunition Feeding Device Act, which would restore the federal ban on high capacity magazines.

Frankel publicly backed an assault-weapons ban and restoration of a federal high-capacity-magazine ban, showing concrete support for the promise but not fulfillment by itself.

Frankel said she voted to pass the Assault Weapons Ban of 2021, which would prohibit the sale, manufacture, transfer, or possession of semiautomatic assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, and said 'now it’s up to the Senate to do the same.'

Frankel took a concrete legislative action in favor of the ban, but the statement itself shows the measure still needed Senate action after the House vote.

Congress.gov lists H.R. 1808 as Passed House, with latest action on 08/01/2022: 'Received in the Senate and Read twice and referred to the Committee on the Judiciary.' The bill status tracker shows only Introduced and Passed House, not enacted into law.

The main federal assault-weapons-ban bill advanced in the House but stopped in the Senate and never became law, which defeats a claim that the promise was fully delivered federally.

Assessments

never same_term A for effort

Frankel supported and cosponsored federal legislation to ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, including the 2013 measures, and voted for H.R. 1808 when it passed the House in 2022. However, the promised federal ban was not enacted into law; H.R. 1808 stopped after House passage and Senate referral. This is a serious legislative effort but not delivery of the promised outcome.

The promised outcome was a federal ban on assault weapons and high-capacity magazines. Frankel repeatedly supported and co-sponsored relevant legislation, and H.R. 1808 passed the House in 2022 with her support, but the bill stalled in the Senate and was not enacted into law. Because the ban itself was not delivered, the outcome is never, with an effort badge for serious legislative action.
