SACRAMENTO—Gov. Gavin Newsom vowed to accelerate a series of gun reform bills May 25, just a day after state lawmakers introduced more than a dozen gun-control bills aimed at reducing gun violence.
The bills were introduced just hours after the deadly massacre at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, that claimed the lives of 19 children and two adults on May 24. The suspect, identified as 18-year-old Salvador Ramos, was shot by police responding to the scene.
