Herring Joins Gun Ban State AGs in Letter to Congress on Ammo Restrictions

WFXR has the story.  It is a letter asking Congress to pass "Jamie's Law" named after one of the students killed at Marjory Stoneman Douglass High School in Parkland.  It would require that in order to buy ammunition, you be licensed to own a firearm or undergo background check.    Proponent's call it closing the "ammo loophole".  A similar requirement was included in the New York "SAFE Act".  That requirement didn't work out so well. 

We Now Know What "Good First Step" Means

When the Democrats in the House of Representatives pushed through HR8, the bill to criminalizing private transfer of firearms without background checks, we heard from those pushing the bill that it would not stop every "tragedy" but it was a "good first step".  We now have a look at what the next step should be - background checks on all ammo purchases, complete with the hashtag #closetheammoloophole.  CBS 4 in Miami has the story.
