The legislation includes measures that would raise the age to buy a semi-automatic rifle from 18- to 21-years old, establish voluntary best practices for home gun storage, and ban the use of bump stocks for civilian use.

The bill would next go to the Senate, where a bipartisan group of senators were negotiating their own set of gun measures. Members also approved nine suspension bills that were debated earlier in the week.
