Assessments
Bice promised to oppose congressional efforts limiting Second Amendment rights. In her first House term, she took concrete official action consistent with that promise by voting for motions to recommit on H.R. 8 and H.R. 1446, both major 2021 House gun background-check bills. Because the promise was framed as opposition rather than enactment of a new policy, these recorded votes are sufficient to count as delivery in the same term.
Bice promised to oppose congressional efforts she viewed as limiting Second Amendment rights. During the same term, she took recorded House votes supporting motions to recommit on H.R. 8 and H.R. 1446, both background-check gun-control bills, which is consistent with opposing those measures. Because the promise was about opposition rather than enactment of a policy outcome, these votes are sufficient evidence of fulfillment.
