The Brady United Against Gun Violence campaign praised President Joe Biden's executive order that was announced on Tuesday, which aims at cracking down on gun violence in the United States.
The new order, which was signed during a ceremony on the site of a mass shooting in California earlier this year, seeks to increase the total number of national background checks, promote proper gun safety and storage among owners, and help local law enforcement agencies make use of resources included in the bipartisan gun control law Biden signed into law in 2022.
"We've got to be just as concerned with ensuring effective implementation of policies like these, as we do with their initial announcement," Brady's Vice President of Policy and Programs Christian Heyne told the Washington Examiner."My hope is is that there will be some efforts here to ensure that these are fully implemented.
The U.S. Concealed Carry Association also responded to the executive order, claiming that it took guns away from"law abiding Americans." Although the USCCA disagreed with the president's approach to gun control, Heyne said he believed the majority of U.S. citizens on both sides of the aisle would agree with"commonsense laws" like a universal background check.
