O'Malley Praises President Obama's Executive Actions to End Gun Violence
BALTIMORE, MD - Today, in response to President Obama's proposed executive actions to end gun violence, Governor O'Malley released the following statement:
"I strongly support President Obama's executive actions to limit gun violence. These executive actions are critical, because every day we spend debating gun control is a day that we lose lives -- and one American life is worth more than all the gun sales in America.
"As President, I will build on President Obama's progress by taking further executive actions to reform our gun laws. These include using the purchasing power of our federal government -- the biggest customer gun companies have -- to advance gun safety, banning 'cop killer' ammunition, declaring blanket immunity for gun dealers and manufacturers unconstitutional, and ceasing to defend the federal immunity law. I urge my fellow Democratic candidates for President to put forward similarly bold plans to improve gun safety and save lives."
