WASHINGTON DC (KOLO) – U.S. Senator Jacky Rosen helped to introduce a bill that would place a ban on high-capacity gun magazines.
Rosen defines a high-capacity magazine as a magazine as one having more than 10 rounds.
The Keep Americans Safe Act would authorize a high-capacity magazine buyback program and authorize law enforcement to seize and destroy high-capacity magazines possessed illegally.
It would also reinstate a nationwide ban on the sale, transfer, possession, importation or manufacturing of those gun magazines.
“High-capacity magazines like those used on 1 October in Las Vegas allow those who commit mass shootings to kill more innocent people faster,” said Senator Rosen. “This commonsense legislation will help decrease gun violence, prevent future tragedies, and keep our communities safe.”
