RELEASE: Legislation to Close a Dangerous Ghost Gun Loophole Moves Forward
SACRAMENTO – America continues to battle an epidemic of gun violence. In the last month alone, our nation has suffered more than 45 mass shootings. In response to this rise in gun violence, the California Legislature continues to work for comprehensive gun safety laws. AB 1057, authored by Assemblywoman Cottie Petrie-Norris, has passed the Assembly’s Public Safety Committee and would allow for the seizure of ghost guns when an emergency Gun Violence Restraining Order (GVRO) is served.
