Contributing sentiments towards policy:

65% : Others bar gun sales on state property, boost inspections of gun dealers, limit dealer fees, and add child and elder abuse to the list of crimes that block gun ownership.
44% : The ACLU called California's law "an attack on the constitution" for deliberately trying to sidestep judicial review by empowering enforcement by citizens and not governments, and for undermining due process rights.
42% : The new law "will make it easier for victims of ghost gun violence, like me, to help enforce our gun laws," said Mia Tretta, who was shot in Santa Clarita during a 2019 attack at Saugus High School and is now a volunteer with Students Demand Action.
22% : The ads parrot a comment by Abbott but substitute gun violence where he mentions abortion.
