How to resolve AdBlock issue? NEW YORK — On July 1, Gov. Kathy Hochul signed legislation to strengthen New York’s gun laws and bolster restrictions on concealed carry weapons.
Local Republican Congress-woman Elise Stefanik called the move “an unconstitutional assault on our Second Amendment rights,” in a statement released July 2, adding that Gov. Hochul should “let New Yorkers exercise their constitutional rights to defend themselves.”
Conversely, local Democrat Congressman Paul Tonko voiced his support of the new legislation, according to published reports over the weekend. “It’s a sampling of what’s to come as the Supreme Court tampers with rights that have been hard achieved that have taken decades of work,” said Tonko.
