We’re hearing a lot about the Nevada ballot measure to tighten regulations on gun sales. The Kenny Guinn Center for Policy Priorities is a nonpartisan think tank based in Nevada that has provided a detailed fact sheet on the initiative, exploring the pros and cons. Executive Director Nancy Brune spoke with our reporter Bob Conrad to explain their findings.
“The folks who are opposed to this measure argue that this measure is really restricting the rights of law-abiding gun owners," says Brune. "They haven’t really done anything wrong and yet now they’re going to be required to undergo an additional step when they transfer a firearm.”
Advocates for the measure say it'll keep more guns out of the hands of domestic abusers and the mentally ill. You can find more information hereand here.
