From Uvalde to Buffalo to violence in New York City, the gun debate is raging on, and Gov. Kathy Hochul says it's time to crack down. New York state is expected to pass a series of bills that would tighten gun laws. AliBaumanTV has details.
In a meeting with the Buffalo mayor Tuesday, New York City Mayor Eric Adams called for more funding to take guns off the street and improve mental health resources.
"We want them to do what's right or else get out of office," said James Hodge, chairman of the Long Beach MLK Center. New York would also become the first state to prohibit the sale of body armor, which the alleged Buffalo shooter was wearing during his attack.
