Freshman Congressman Maxwell Frost (D-Fla.) is leading the Democratic Party’s latest gun control push, calling for a ban on “zombie guns.”
spectrum news report Mr. Frost wants to close the “zombie gun loophole” and has the support of more than 20 Democratic House members, he said.
The nickname “zombie guns” is what Mr. Frost applies to guns that are not destroyed after they are “retired by law enforcement” or are salvaged through gun buybacks.
