Gun control (CNN)

 

President Joe Biden will announce a series of executive actions on gun control today in response to mass shootings in Georgia and Colorado last month. The orders will tighten restrictions on so-called ghost guns and pistol stabilizing braces that allow weapons to be used more accurately. They will also direct resources toward community violence prevention. While these executive orders address the calls for gun control action that followed last month’s violence, senior administration officials say they’re just the beginning of Biden’s gun control mission. However, to accomplish his more ambitious goals, like universal background checks or an assault weapons ban, he’ll need a lot of support from an evenly split Senate.
