Sandy Hook School shooting leads to new gun control bills

The Sandy Hook School shooting has led a number of law makers to call for more gun control.  New Jersey’s own Sen. Frank Lautenberg will introduce a pared down version of the 1994 assault weapon ban that expired in 2004.  He’s tried this before but could not muster enough support to get his bills through.  However, this shooting may force the hand of many politicians who don’t want to vote no in the wake of the shooting.  Sen. Dianne Feinstein, the author of the original assault weapons ban will reintroduce the exact same law.  I’m sure there will be others as politicians look to use this tragedy to push their agenda.
