U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said in a statement on Sunday that the newly agreed-to framework on gun control and gun violence prevention from a bipartisan group of senators "will take steps to save lives."
The framework focused on gun control and gun violence prevention was announced by a group of bipartisan senators on Sunday and includes measures to implement an enhanced review process for people who want to purchase firearms and are under the age of 21, penalties for straw purchases, more funding for school resource officers, an expansion of mental health programs in schools, and an expansion of mental health services for children and families.
Pelosi said in a statement on Sunday that the bipartisan proposal "will take steps to save lives," but added "more is needed."
