(Boston, MA) The State House voted 120 to 38 on the legislation looking to tighten gun laws by prohibiting firearms in some public spaces, establishing new registration requirements to reduce the spread of “ghost guns,” and streamlining the licensing process. The Massachusetts Chiefs of Police Association, with over 300 police chiefs, are unanimously opposed to this bill as they believe it will not protect law-abiding citizens from the criminal element. The Senate will now be working on their version of the bill.
