FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - June 21, 2024 / DNC Talking Points - DNC Statement on United States v. Rahimi - In response to the Supreme Court of the United States ruling in United States v. Rahimi, DNC National Press Secretary Emilia Rowland released the following statement:“Protecting domestic abuse survivors against gun violence should never be a question – But that’s how extreme MAGA Republicans in the pocket of the gun lobby have become under the leadership of Donald Trump. While President Biden and Democrats have worked tirelessly to pass common sense gun safety legislation that protects survivors of domestic violence, Trump and his MAGA allies are pushing an extreme agenda that puts the interests of the NRA over the safety of our communities. This November, your safety and your family’s safety is on the ballot.”President Biden is fighting for common sense gun measures, strengthening background checks while working to close loopholes, and investing in violence intervention and mental health services.Center for American Progress: “Federal protections are vital to the safety of unmarried individuals in dating partnerships, and by expanding federal domestic violence firearm prohibitors to include abusive dating partners with misdemeanor domestic violence convictions, the BSCA takes a significant step forward in protecting all victims of domestic abuse from deadly gun violence.”19th News: “Biden just made it harder for domestic abusers to get guns”Everytown for Gun Safety: “The Bipartisan Safer Communities Act established an enhanced background check process for buyers under 21. There have been more than 100,000 enhanced background checks for these buyers, which have kept almost 1,000 guns out of the hands of prohibited persons—including more than 200 people that were denied solely because of the changes made in the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act.“Hundreds of millions of dollars have also been invested to help federal, state, and local law enforcement get the right records into the background check system to ensure that checks are complete and thorough.”White House: “The American Rescue Plan (ARP) has provided over $15 billion to prevent crime and promote public safety, including community violence intervention programs and crisis responders, while Bipartisan Safer Community Act —the most significant gun safety legislation in the last 30 years—provides $250 million in funding for community-based violence prevention initiatives, in addition to key investments for schools to expand mental health services and violence intervention programs.”###

On MSNBC’sAlex Witt Reports, Biden-Harris Senior Spokesperson Adrienne Elrod:“This is about the future of their lives, the future of the lives of their children, the future of their freedoms, their own personal freedoms, the future of women to make their own reproductive decisions about their bodies. Donald Trump has done so much damage to this country and I think, of course, most noticeably Alex, putting three extremely conservative Justices on the Supreme Court during his time as president that have ripped away the freedoms of Americans.”

On CNN’sState of the Union,National Advisory Board Member Governor Kathy Hochul:“Donald Trump all he can say about abortions is ‘I took away the woman's right to choose.’ That is, that is his talking point. He can't go anywhere else.’ I stack the supreme court with people I knew were hostile to women's rights,’ that my mother's generation fought for that are not there for my daughter's generation and I want them back for my granddaughter’s generation… Everybody knows who stole that right from American women but that's part of [President Biden’s] agenda, talking about how we protect women's rights.”
