Rep. King’s Gun-Restriction Plan
Since the tragic shooting in Tucson that claimed the lives of six and left Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords fighting for her life, there have been a bevy of gun control bills proposed. Some call for closing a loophole in the background check system. Others for banning the high-capacity magazines that allow people to carry up to 30 bullets at once. But one New York Republican has a different bill, which would implement a one thousand foot ban on guns at events that members of Congress or the President and his cabinet attend.
Rep. Pete King joined Liz Benjamin from Hofstra University, on his native Long Island to talk more about this bill.
