from Martin O'Malley: [View all]

Ellen,

Thank you for joining Martin O'Malley and our campaign to end gun violence. We must do more and we will do more. In Maryland Governor O'Malley passed real gun control—laws that banned high-magazine weapons, increased licensing standards, and required fingerprinting for handgun owners. As a nation we must start by taking the same kind of smart, common-sense action to protect our families and communities. Here's how:

Institute a national assault weapons ban
Implement comprehensive background checks
Employ efforts to reduce straw-buying, like fingerprint requirements.
