Assessing the Impact of Biden's Gun Safety Efforts: One Year Later.

TL;DR Summary
Gun violence survivors, activists, and elected officials gathered in Connecticut to mark nearly one year since Congress passed the most significant gun safety package in three decades. The Bipartisan Safer Communities Act focuses on keeping firearms out of the hands of dangerous people and investing in school safety and mental health resources. The legislation has resulted in dozens of federal charges and blocked the purchase of more than a hundred firearm purchases. Available data suggests the U.S. is seeing a year-over-year decline in murders nationwide, but mass shootings appear to be accelerating.
