“Governor Cuomo laid out a strong agenda in many areas for the year ahead, which will build on the progress he has led over the past two years.  I was particularly struck by his passionate leadership on gun violence. New York State has led the nation with strong, common-sense gun laws, and the Governor’s new proposals will build on that tradition.  They will help law enforcement keep guns out of the hands of criminals and other dangerous people and save lives. We strongly support his proposals to close loopholes and strengthen existing laws, and we look forward to working with him and the State Legislature to adopt them.”
