Senator Shelley Mayer put on a (totally unnecessary) dog-and-pony show outside White Plains City Hall calling for Gov. Hochul to sign a couple of her gun control bills:

“Standing in front of White Plains City Hall, public safety advocates and lawmakers called on Gov. Kathy Hochul to sign a pair of bills they say will further reduce gun violence across New York. State Sen. Shelley Mayer is the sponsor of the bills that passed both houses of the state Legislature earlier this year … The first bill would require New York’s digital registry of orders of protection and warrants to include extreme risk protection orders (ERPOs) … Mayer’s second bill would require firearm licensing officers to provide additional information about safe storage laws, including child access prevention measures when issuing permits …”

Her bills in question are S-3340 and S-9760.

There is no doubt Hochul will sign the bills. Mayer just wants some media face time before the upcoming elections.
