Over the past few years, more than 20 states have passed new laws restricting how people can buy and carry guns in response to our nation’s epidemic of gun violence.
Over the past few years, more than 20 states have passed new laws restricting how people can buy and carry guns in response to our nation’s epidemic of gun violence.
But these common-sense reforms are undermined by gun trafficking made possible by looser gun laws in neighboring states -- about 50,000 guns are diverted to criminals across state lines every year, and it’s likely that many more go undetected.
That’s why Sean helped introduce the Gun Trafficker Detection Act, which would require gun owners to report a lost or stolen gun within 48 hours.
This legislation will help law enforcement identify and prosecute traffickers, who often claim their gun was lost or stolen when it turns up at a crime scene in another state -- and hold them liable for any damage done by their guns!
It’s far past time for action: sign on to support the Gun Trafficker Detection Act to keep our communities safe from gun violence!
Too many loved ones have been taken from their families already. No more.
We need gun safety reforms now,
Team Casten
