| Description | Gov. Phil Murphy made an unusual demand last week: that every prominent gun-related bill proposed in the New Jersey legislature – Republican or Democratic, increasing gun restrictions or loosening them – be put to a full vote. With two major mass shootings in two weeks, one at a Black supermarket in New York and the other at an elementary school in Texas, Murphy said it’s time to know where New Jersey legislators stand.
That means legislators would have to vote on the eight bills in Murphy’s third gun safety package, which foundered in the legislature during last session’s lame duck period; it also means they’d face proposals from Republican legislators to allow concealed carry and undo several previously passed gun control laws. |
