In the wake of the Pulse shooting , Nadeau called on Congress to address gun violence in local communities and stop blocking District laws . In 2017 , Nadeau introduced a bill that would authorize a court to issue a temporary civil protection order , temporarily prohibiting someone from having firearms if the court has a reasonable belief that the subject poses an immediate risk to themselves or others . The D.C. Council 's Judiciary Committee held a public hearing on the bill on March 22 , 2018
