The task force will consider the
connection between mental health and mass shootings; the relationship between
domestic violence and mass shootings and make appropriate recommendations.
Among its considerations, it will explore the potential effectiveness of enhanced
waiting periods and enhanced background checks; uniformity of rules regarding
purchases in stores and gun shows; whether private sellers should be required
to conduct background checks on the domestic violence registry; and Federal and
State model regulation of assault weapons and related accessories such as large
ammunition magazines, “bump stocks” and other devices.
