Allow extreme risk protection orders through federal courts

Sherman cosponsors the Federal Extreme Risk Protection Order Act. It would encourage states to pass red-flag laws and allow federal courts to issue orders removing firearms from a person who has shown intent to harm themselves or others, after a petition by family members or law enforcement.

Context: The source describes the act as a bill; it does not specify the court process or duration of orders.
