Update on Strategy to Reduce Gun Violence with Po Murray Newtown Action Alliance

Digital Politics with Karen Jagoda

Po Murray, Co-Founder and Chairwoman of the Newtown Action Alliance, joins Deepak Puri, CEO of The Democracy Labs, to discuss the variations in state and federal laws protecting residents from gun violence. Since Uvalde, there have been changes in the awareness of the need for background checks and holding stakeholders responsible for public safety. Citizen activists are pushing for state and federal legislation to pierce the shield that protects weapon sales.

Deepak and Po talk about:

• Continuing efforts to get the assault weapon ban passed
• Nationalizing Ethan's Law, the child access prevention law passed in Connecticut
• Holding the gun industry accountable for gun violence and mass murders
• Preventing school shootings
• When motivated citizens get involved in changing public policy
