Stop Handgun Violence Stop Handgun Violence Governor Healey Gun Safety Bill Signing July 2024 STOP HANDGUN VIOLENCE STOP HANDGUN VIOLENCE I applaud the Massachusetts House and Senate for enacting a very thoughtful new comprehensive gun violence prevention bill that is specifically targeted to close dangerous loopholes in our existing gun safety laws and that will effectively save lives without infringing on the 2nd Amendment. A majority on the Supreme Court while acknowledging the deadly impact of using bump stocks to fire more bullets more rapidly to kill more people would rather pass the buck to an ineffective Congress than maintain the ban. The SCOTUS ruling on NY Bruen case is playing out across the country but its important to realize that this decision does NOT undo lawful gun restrictions and it does NOT undo licensing requirements. We dont shy away because of Bruen rather we press forward because gun laws save lives.
