Evidence
Recent votes listed on Underwood’s official House site include 04/22/2026 roll call 136 on H.R.6387, the FIRE Act, with Underwood voting Nay on passage. The page shows recent legislative activity but no enacted gun-safety law in the lookback window.
Congress.gov shows H.R.1307, the Office of Gun Violence Prevention Act of 2025, with Lauren Underwood as a cosponsor on 02/13/2025 and the latest action as referral to the House Judiciary Committee. The bill remains in introduced status, not law.
GovInfo shows S.4454, the Firearm Safety Act of 2026, introduced in the Senate on 04/30/2026 and referred to the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation. The measure is only introduced and has not been signed into law.
Assessments
The promised federal outcome occurred: the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, a major gun-safety law, passed Congress and was signed into law on June 25, 2022 while Lauren Underwood was serving in the House. The official House roll call for S.2938 shows Underwood voted Yea on final House concurrence on June 24, 2022, materially advancing enactment. Later evidence from 2025-2026 shows additional gun-safety bills she supported remained pending, but that does not negate the earlier enacted federal gun-safety legislation.
