"Massachusetts Senate Passes Sweeping Gun Reform Legislation"
Originally Published 1 year ago — by Spectrum News 1
The Massachusetts Senate overwhelmingly passed the "SAFER Act" gun reform bill by a 37 to 3 vote, focusing on "ghost guns" and implementing measures such as serialization of gun parts and a ban on Glock switches. The Gun Owners Action League expressed frustration, while State Sen. John Velis added an amendment to keep gun offenders in jail until trial. The bill now requires reconciliation with the state House of Representatives' version before being presented to Gov. Maura Healey.
