Do You Care About Making it Harder to Get a Gun?
Then here is whom to vote for on November 4!
What is it?
- The Supreme Court case ruled in 2008 in D.C. vs. Heller that individuals have the right to bear arms, not just the "militia." Since then, legislatures have pushed for expanded individual gun rights. Recent legislation includes:
- Some in Congress want to close the gunshow loophole; the "loophole" is that background checks required at gun dealerships do not apply at gun shows.
- Some in Congress want to restrict large capacity ammunition,
because so many public shootings occur with large clips.
- Some in Congress want to oppose "stand-your-ground" laws, which changes the "duty to retreat" when faced with an armed attacker.
How does it get passed?
It takes 218 Congresspersons to pass gun control bills in the House of Representatives. It takes 60 Senators in the Senate (a super-majority is needed on this issue, to avoid filibusters).
What's happened so far?
The last major House amendment, (prohibiting D.C. firearm laws), passed the House with 241 votes. Since the District of Columbia is not a state, Congress sets its laws; D.C. had several gun registration laws which this bill repeals. Gun control supporters need 31 votes to win next time.
The last major Senate amendment, proposing instant criminal background checks,
was rejected in the Senate with 54 votes in the Senate
(60 votes were needed; so 6 more votes needed to break filibuster).
What will the candidates running in my area on November 4 do?

How to interpret this page
- The list above includes candidates for Senate and House seats in 2014.
- All of the above ratings are based on multiple sources of information.
- The sources of information include legislative votes; bill sponsorships; group ratings; campaign websites; campaign debates; and biographical books.
- Each information source is rated as supporting the topic, or opposing the topic.
- The number of opposing sources is subtracted from the number of supporting sources; if the net sum is positive, the candidate counts as "Pro"; if negative, the candidate counts as "Con."
- Click on the candidate's name to see the list of information sources, and whether we rate is as supporting or opposing.
- Click on the date of each information source to see a full excerpt and context.
Key for Pro votes:
- An aboslute YES vote: 5 or more net supporting information sources, indicating consistent and long-standing support
- A solid YES vote: 3 or 4 net supporting information sources, indicating substantive support
- A likely YES vote: 1 or 2 net supporting information sources, indicating some support but not enough for certitude.
- If a candidate has a net zero supporting information sources (or no information sources), that candidate is not listed above at all.
Key for Con votes:
- An absolute NO vote: 5 or more net opposinginformation sources, indicating consistent and long-standing opposition
- A solid NO vote: 3 or 4 net opposing information sources, indicating substantive opposition
- A likely NO vote: 1 or 2 net opposing information sources, indicating some opposition but not enough for certitude.
- The above list is not fully inclusive; many House challengers are not included, but all House incumbents are eligibla.
- All major-party Senate candidates (and incumbents) are eligible; and most Senate challengers are, too.
- Some of the candidates listed above lost in the primary, but are still listed.
