Lawmakers Approve Gun Control Measures for SAFE Act
Six years after state lawmakers approved the gun control law known as the SAFE Act, the Democratic-controlled Legislature on Tuesday backed new measures that include barring teachers from having guns on school grounds.
“Today is another step forward,” said Cuomo. “It's not going to be everything, but it's another step forward.”
Lawmakers will approve bills banning the sale and possession of bump stocks, an extension of the waiting period for background checks, block teachers and other school employees from having firearms on school grounds and a “Red Flag” bill barring the possession of a gun for those deemed to be too dangerous.
