NYS Assemblymember Amy Paulin issued the following statement following news that a 16-year-old from New Rochelle passed away after being shot multiple times by a 16-year-old.
This is just tragic. We have to change the gun culture and availability of guns in New York and simultaneously pass legislation which effectuates those changes. That’s what I’m dedicated to fighting for in Albany and why I co-sponsored two major anti-ghost gun bills last year. These new laws will crack down on dangerous, untraceable firearms that are designed to evade background checks. If you can’t pass a background check, you shouldn’t be able to get a gun.
