Politico is now reporting that the Obama administration is likely to unveil new executive actions on guns next week. Politico says, “The White House is putting finishing touches on several measures in an effort to make progress on curbing gun violence.” These gun-control actions are expected to require more people who sell guns to be licensed and to require gun makers to report guns that are lost in transit (perhaps stolen) as they are shipped to gun dealers—by law, gun manufacturers can only ship guns to licensed dealers.
As they’ve prepared these actions, President Barack Obama has met with former New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg, a billionaire who has long funded and, to some extent, run anti-gun-rights groups such as Everytown for Gun Safety. President Obama, however, is not known to have met with people from gun-rights groups.
