Florida Gov Rick Scott Defies NRA Signs New Gun Regulation Bill

 

Florida Gov. Rick Scott endorsed Senate Bill 7026 into law Friday, the principal firearm control enactment established in the state after the Parkland school slaughter on February 14.

The law, known as the Marjory Stone man Douglas High School Public Safety Act, fixes weapon control in a few ways yet in addition enables a few school teachers to be Armed.

Scott, Surrounded by the families of those effected by the tragedy, described the impact the tragedy has had on his state and the repercussions of the Valentine’s Day massacre at Marjory Stone man Douglas in Parkland, in 2016 the shootings at Pulse dance club in Orlando and Fort Lauder dale Airport.

“The hardest thing I’ve ever needed to do as senator is to begin to discover the words to comfort a parent who has lost their kid,” Scott said. “There are only no words.”

One arrangement of the law raises the base age to buy a gun to 18 to 21.

Scott received the $400 million bill Thursday following days of impassioned, often contentious debate in the majority-Republican House and Senate. He praised the Legislature, contrasting its quick action with what he called the inefficiency of the federal government in Washington.
A controversial part of the new law is known as the Coach Aaron Feis Guardian Program, which arms some teachers if both the local school district and local sheriff’s department agree. The $67 million provision is named after the coach who shielded students with his own body and died in last month’s shooting.
