Democrats press for federal gun reform after surgeon general advisory
Democratic U.S. House members urged action after Surgeon General Vivek Murthy called gun violence a public health crisis in a 40 page advisory. The document cites 2022 deaths over 4 600 children and adults, urges universal background checks and safe storage, and proposes risk protection orders to keep guns from at risk individuals.
