Trump addresses an embattled NRA as he campaigns against Biden’s gun policies - lemm.ee
From May 2024: > As he seeks a second term, Trump has promised to remain an
unflinching supporter of the NRA and its agenda to unravel four years of Biden’s
actions on guns. Biden’s campaign has branded Trump “the greatest defender of
the Second Amendment to ever occupy the White House.” > > Trump’s speech was
short on specifics about what he would do to protect or expand gun rights in a
second term, but he promised to “roll back every Biden attack on the Second
Amendment.” He sought to remind the friendly crowd of his administration’s
accomplishments while arguing that another four years of Biden’s leadership
would result in more firearms and gun owners being targeted.
Has Biden taken any action? He’s talked a lot about it but I’m not aware of any actual policy
Biden signs landmark gun measure, says 'lives will be saved'
President Joe Biden has signed the most sweeping gun violence bill in decades. The bipartisan compromise seemed unimaginable until a recent series of mass shootings, including the massacre of 19 students and two teachers at a Texas elementary school. The House gave final approval Friday, following Senate passage Thursday, and Biden acted just before leaving Washington for two world leader summits in Europe. The legislation will toughen background checks for the youngest gun buyers, keep firearms from more domestic violence offenders and help states put in place laws that make it easier for authorities to take weapons from people adjudged to be dangerous. Most of its $13 billion cost will help bolster mental health programs and aid schools
