It has been two years since a gunman opened fire on a crowd of concert-goers at the Route 91 Harvest Festival in Las Vegas, killing 58 people. In part, the incident led to gun legislation during the 2019 legislative session. SB143 was one of the first bills Governor Steve Sisolak signed into law. It will require background checks on all gun sales starting in January, including private party sales. "Background checks do save lives," Will Pregman, Communications Director for Battle Born Progress said. "There are many background checks that get rejected just from the current system when people trying to buy a gun and have committed violent crimes."

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed; as they are in almost every kingdom of Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any bands of regular troops that can be, on any pretense, raised in the United States. — Noah Webster in "An Examination into the Leading Principles of the Federal Constitution," 1787, in Paul Ford, ed., Pamphlets on the Constitution of the United States, at p. 56 (New York, 1888). |
