Oregon citizens officially lost some of their gun rights when Governor Kate Brown signed Senate Bill 941 on May 10th, 2015. SB 941 requires background checks for most gun transactions involving private parties. Anti-gun rights groups praised the passage of the bill.
"We have an obligation to protect Oregonians from gun violence," Brown said before signing Senate Bill 941. "If we want to keep our kids, schools and communities safe, we must make it harder for dangerous people to get guns."

Jared Loughner, the man who shot Gabrielle Giffords on January 8th, 2011, passed a background check in 2010.
Aurora, CO shooter James Holmes passed a background check.
Virginia Tech shooter Seung-Hui Cho passed a background check.
Las Vegas shooters Jared and Amanda Miller passed background checks.
Navy Shipyard shooter Aaron Alexis passed a background check.
Seattle Jewish Center shooter Naveed Haq passed a background check.
