California Attorney General Rob Bonta recently announced that his office is allocating $5 million to assist sheriffs’ departments across the state in seizing weapons and ammunition from people who had previously purchased a firearm and have since become legally prohibited from possessing them.
“In the United States in 2022, there have been more mass shootings than days in the year,” Bonta said in an Aug. 3 statement. “Gun violence is the number one cause of death of children and young adults in our nation. This is unacceptable.”
