Seeking a Breakthrough on Gun Control: Robert Spitzer / Political Science Professor, State University of New York Cortland - Episode 16

Overview

When President Biden took office in 2021, he vowed to take action on gun control and end America's "gun violence epidemic." But with the US's long history of upholding the Second Amendment and the right to own firearms, along with the powerful influence of the gun lobby group the National Rifle Association, the fierce debate over gun rights continues. Dr. Robert Spitzer returns to discuss this complex issue, and if any recent laws or measures can be the breakthrough needed on gun control.
