The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 6605, seeks to amend section 19a-112j of the general statutes by adding a new member to the Commission on Community Gun Violence Intervention and Prevention. The new member will be a representative from a group that promotes firearm safety and education. This addition aims to enhance the commission's expertise and focus on promoting responsible firearm use and education within the community.
The bill does not include any deletions from the current law but emphasizes the importance of including diverse perspectives in the commission's discussions and initiatives. By expanding the membership to include a representative dedicated to firearm safety, the bill aims to strengthen the commission's efforts in addressing gun violence through education and prevention strategies.
