Despite a veto threat by Gov. Wolf, the state Senate approved a bill that would allow PA gun owners and gun-rights organizations to collect damages from cities that passed firearms restrictions in violation of state law.
The bill he vetoed Thursday also would have wiped out a law, applying only to Philadelphia, that requires gun owners to get a permit to openly carry a firearm in the city.
The bill faces a certain veto from Gov. Tom Wolf, along with another one the senate passed to punish municipalities that impose gun laws stricter than state law.
The president of the American Federation of Teachers, along with a member who is a Sandy Hook shooting survivor, discuss how our new reality raises the stakes on the epidemic of gun violence in communities.
