The resolution encourages the Executive Board of the Legislative Research Council to establish an interim legislative committee tasked with exploring ways to enhance state participation in the national instant criminal background check system. This initiative aims to better identify individuals with mental health issues who may seek to own or possess firearms, while also ensuring the protection of citizens' rights and safety. The resolution emphasizes the importance of proactive measures that integrate legal, public health, and public safety systems in addressing the complexities surrounding gun ownership and mental health.

Additionally, the study proposed by the resolution will focus on several key areas, including the due process rights related to expanded reporting to the background check system, the standardization of training for those involved in reporting and accessing information, and the examination of county mental health boards and their authority. The committee is expected to gather insights from various stakeholders, including the Office of the Attorney General, mental health providers, law enforcement, and retail merchants. Ultimately, the findings and recommendations from this study will be presented to the Executive Board for potential legislative action.
