Alma Adams on Gun Control

 

 


Start by having some common sense gun laws

We must do more to combat rising crime rates in America. It starts by having some common sense gun laws.

Gun control legislation is essential to fighting crime, protecting our citizens, and reducing dangers our law enforcement face each day. Congress needs to ban certain high powered assault weapons, close the gun show loophole, require background checks for purchases of firearms, and improve the tracking of firearms in our country.
