I hope this bill is signed by Bush (or has it been?).

Not yet. But understand that what I quoted is only part of the findings, it does not carry the force of law. But, whether the President signs it or not, but especially if he does (and he's not exactly worn out his veto pen you know), this language would probably have some weight when and if the Supreme Court ever gets around to making a ruling on some gun control law.
