The document was prepared in connection with the increasing incidence of shootings in schools and social institutions in the United States.
In the United States, the Senate of Congress supported the gun control bill. This was reported by CNN.
Then the bill will be sent to the House of Representatives for approval. If passed, it will go to the US President Biden for his signature.
The law will tighten control over the sale of firearms to Americans under the age of 21. It will also allow authorities to temporarily seize guns from those who pose a threat to themselves and others. In addition, people who have been prosecuted for domestic violence will be banned from buying guns for five years.
The bill was prepared due to the fact that the number of shootings at the US schools and other social facilities has increased.
For example, there was a school shooting in Texas on May 24. Nineteen children and several adults were killed.
Five people died in a shooting at the Tulsa Medical Center.
