History was made last Wednesday night! When New York Governor Kathy Hochul signed Francesco’s Law into New York State Law! Thank you to everyone who partnered with Newtown Action Alliance to call into New York and support the passage of this lifesaving legislation.

Francesco’s Law requires all rifles, shotguns, and firearms in New York State to be safely secured when they are not under their owner’s immediate control. By requiring secure storage, we can help prevent suicides, accidental shootings, gun theft, and other preventable tragedies.
