Contributing sentiments towards policy:

53% : California Attorney General Rob Bonta, a former Bay Area member of the state Assembly who was appointed by Newsom to the post last year, is pushing the measure, among others related to gun control, in the state legislature.
49% : Like the vice president's statement, the focus among Democrats has centered on the need for more firearms regulation in California, which already has among the most restrictive gun-control rules in the nation.
39% : In recent months, a particular focus of law enforcement officials and state lawmakers has been efforts to limit the quantity of stolen or untraceable handguns, including "ghost guns," although it remains unclear if the weapon recovered at the scene falls into either category.
39% : Newsom, who is traveling with his family on spring break outside the country, has called for California to adopt gun regulations that mirror the abortion restrictions passed in Texas and validated by the courts.
