Sponsor: Rep. Kelly, Robin L. [D-IL-2] (Introduced 02/11/2026).

Kelly introduced H.R. 7499 to remove the Consumer Product Safety Act exclusion for pistols, revolvers, and other firearms so the CPSC can set safety standards.

H.R.7499 - 119th Congress (2025-2026): To amend the Consumer Product Safety Act to remove the exclusion of pistols, revolvers, and other firearms from the definition of consumer product in order to permit the issuance of safety standards for such articles by the Consumer Product Safety Commission.

Evidence

Official House press release says Kelly introduced two bicameral bills to implement consumer safety standards for guns. It says the Firearm Safety Act would remove firearms from the Consumer Product Safety Commission consumer-product exclusion, letting the commission set safety standards, require warning labels, and order recalls for defective guns.

Kelly took a concrete legislative step toward the CPSC-firearms standard goal by introducing the Firearm Safety Act, but the bill was not yet enacted.

Contest this evidence item

Kelly's official gun-violence issue page still lists the Firearm Safety Act item as an introduced bill. In the visible recent-item list, the latest dated gun-violence post is March 2, 2026, so there is no newer official House update in the 30-day lookback window.

No additional official House movement showed up in the lookback window; the commitment remains only partially delivered rather than completed.

Assessments

delivered same_term

The promise was to support legislation permitting the Consumer Product Safety Commission to regulate firearm safety, not to ensure enactment. Kelly materially fulfilled that pledge by introducing the Firearm Safety Act, which would remove firearms from the CPSC exclusion and authorize safety standards, warning labels, and recalls. Because her concrete support occurred while in office and during the relevant term, this counts as delivered in the same term even though the bill had not become law.
