Jacky has been a leader in the fight against gun violence throughout her time in Congress. Following the 1 October shooting in Las Vegas, which is still the deadliest mass shooting in our nation’s history, Jacky has pushed for federal legislation banning the sale of bump stocks, high-capacity magazines, and deadly assault weapons to keep our families and communities safe. She helped pass the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, the most significant gun safety law in 30 years. This critical legislation is helping to keep guns out of dangerous hands by enhancing background checks on firearm purchases for individuals under 21, helping implement red flag laws, and investing in school safety and mental health programs. Jacky has also helped introduce legislation to expand federal background checks and close loopholes in the law. She will always stand up to the gun lobby and do what’s right for Nevada families by pushing for commonsense gun safety measures.
