California Gov. Gavin Newsom, a Democrat, received a fact-check Monday after claiming the Hollywood, Fla., shooting violated the Constitution’s Carry Act.
Governor Ron DeSantis’ office immediately summoned Mr. Newsom and asked how a law not taking effect until July 1, 2023 could have had any bearing on the May 29, 2023 shooting.
Newsom tweeted:
DeSantis signed a permit-less-carry bill in April that would remove the requirement to:
– background check
-order
– training + supervisionThis kind of senseless violence will continue until our leaders have the courage to stop bowing to the NRA and enact common sense gun safety laws. https://t.co/iX6ryxsPwv
