New York Gov. Kathy Hochul signed multiple gun control measures on Thursday.
One piece of legislation strengthens a previous bill that requires credit and debit card issuers to track sales at firearms and ammunition retailers.
“We’re taking action to drive down gun violence in the State of New York — protecting our communities and making our streets safer,” Hochul said.
“Public safety is my number one priority, and by giving law enforcement additional tools to stop gun violence in its tracks, we’re building on our promise to put the safety of New Yorkers first,” she added.
