President Biden signed gun safety legislation into law at the White House and said it was a “monumental day.” Also known as the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, the law aims to expand mental health services, crack down on firearms trafficking, extend background checks for purchasers under 21, and enhance school safety, among other measures. It was passed one month after the mass shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas. Previous federal gun legislation includes a 1994 assault weapons ban, which expired 10 years later. The president also commented on the Supreme Court striking down Roe v. Wade and said his administration will take action to protect reproductive health. When asked by a reporter if the Court is broken he responded, “I think the Supreme Court has made some terrible decisions.” close
