The 1996 Lautenberg Amendment is a provision to the Gun Control Act of 1968 that prohibits individuals convicted of domestic violence misdemeanors from possessing firearms. Named after Senator Frank Lautenberg, the amendment was enacted to enhance protections for victims of domestic abuse by closing loopholes that allowed offenders to retain gun ownership. It also applies to individuals subject to certain domestic violence protective orders. The amendment was significant in addressing the intersection of gun rights and domestic violence issues in the United States.
