Gun Control Measures Head To Governor's Desk

(Providence, RI)  --  The Rhode Island House and Senate both passed so-called "red flag" laws impacting gun ownership on Thursday.  The bill makes it easier for police to take guns away from those who are at a high risk of killing themselves or someone else.  Both chambers passed the matching bills with overwhelming support, and also passed a ban on bump stocks, the device used by the suspect in the Las Vegas hotel shooting of 2017.  Governor Gina Raimondo is expected to sign the measures on Friday.
