Olivia pointed to the freezing of the publication of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency’s “Fair Access” banking rule, and promises to seek to repeal the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act to tighten restrictions on gun licenses and a ban on AR-15-style rifles by the Biden administration.

Nearly one year later, Northam, whose term expires in 2022, told WRIC on Monday that he ll leave the decision to revisit a gun ban up to the discretion of the legislature. Whatever they do, I’ll be supportive of, Northam said.
