Contributing sentiments towards policy:

47% : But their efforts have been undermined by lax gun laws in neighboring states and by the Supreme Court, where the conservative majority further expanded gun rights in a high-profile ruling last year.
46% :California Governor Gavin Newsom on Thursday announced a novel -- and longshot -- push for gun control to address the country's ongoing crisis of mass shootings and deadly violence: a constitutional amendment that would impose federal restrictions on gun ownership and ban assault weapons.
45% : So let's give this a shot."To be clear, it's extremely unlikely the proposed 28th amendment -- which would raise the minimum purchasing age to 21, impose universal background checks and waiting periods, and prohibit the sale of assault weapons -- will come to fruition, even as the country suffers a record-breaking wave of mass gun violence this year.
