Pennsylvania House To Vote On Gun Control Bill Monday

Pennsylvania House To Vote On Gun Control Bill Monday

(Harrisburg, PA) -- A measure that would change how guns are sold in Pennsylvania will be voted on for final passage in the state House Monday. House Bill 731 would require the securing/disabling of firearms when they're not being carried. It would also mandate locks on long guns at the time they're purchased, which is not a current requirement for sales. Supporters say the measure provides more security for weapons that children could have access to, but opponents say the bill goes against the U.S. and Pennsylvania constitutions. They also say it wouldn't necessarily prevent gun violence carried out by criminals.
