Democrat Charlottesville Delegate David Toscano Says Gun Control is Unlikely to Pass

While Toscano supports gun control, he told attendees at a constituents forum held at UVA yesterday that it is unlikely to pass the General Assembly this year. Mental Health was also a hot topic of discussion and Delegate Rob Bell said instead of passing gun control, the Commonwealth needs to continue making sure mental health information is included in background check databases. Since the Virginia Tech shooting in 2007, Virginia has led the nation in reporting mental health related information to the NICS.
