I am a strong proponent of the Second Amendment and agree with the NRA stance that we need to enforce existing laws aimed at criminals who use guns to commit their crimes in order to reduce gun violence in our country.
Enforce existing gun laws against criminals who use guns to commit crimes.

Evidence
Congress.gov identifies Aaron Bean as a Republican House member for Florida District 4 in the 118th-119th Congresses, 2023-present.
The Bean activity page lists H.R.3492, the Gun Owner Registration Information Protection Act, introduced May 18, 2023 and referred to House Judiciary.
The Bean activity page lists H.R.2184, the Firearm Due Process Protection Act of 2025; status shown as introduced, with no enactment steps completed.
Congress.gov member activity shows 42 sponsored measures and 359 cosponsored measures for Bean, with filters including Crime and Law Enforcement activity.
Assessments
Bean won the 2022 federal House race and served beginning in the 118th Congress. The available congressional activity shows firearm-related bills he sponsored or cosponsored, but the identified measures were either about gun-owner registration privacy or firearm due process, were not enacted, and did not deliver the promised outcome of enforcing existing gun laws against criminals who use guns in crimes. No evidence shows Bean materially advanced an enacted federal enforcement measure satisfying the promise, nor a serious failed attempt directly aimed at that outcome.
