Kamala Harris’ ‘New Way Forward’ Is an Ongoing Push for the Same Old Gun Controls Biden Wanted

By AWR Hawkins

Democrat presidential candidate Kamala Harris released policy positions Sunday under the banner of ‘A New Way Forward,’ and the positions include the same old gun controls President Joe Biden wanted.

• For example, under the heading, “Make Our Communities Safer From Gun Violence and Crime,” she pledges to “ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, require universal background checks, and support red flag laws that keep guns out of the hands of dangerous people.”

  Those three gun controls–an “assault weapons” ban, universal background checks, and red flag laws–are the same old controls the Biden/Harris administration have been pushing for nearly four years.

  Moreover, the controls already exist in California, where they have overpromised and underdelivered on safety.

  Consider this: California has the three old gun controls Biden/Harris have been pursuing throughout their administration–the same three Harris pledges to push now–and California led the nation in “active shooter incidents” in 2021 and 2023.

  On August 6, 2024, Breitbart News pointed out that Harris’ VP pick Tim Walz (D) also supports the same three gun controls that Biden and Harris have spent years pushing in Washington, DC.
