Opinion/Elorza and Rivera: Rhode Island is a leader in gun safety – it’s time to keep leading
Jorge O. Elorza and Maria Rivera
Jorge O. Elorza is the mayor of Providence. Maria Rivera is the mayor of Central Falls. Both are members of Mayors Against Illegal Guns.
Over the past decade, Rhode Island lawmakers have helped make our state one of the safest in the country. They’ve made sure that every gun sale in our state goes through a background check, passed an extreme risk law, disarmed domestic abusers, and tackled the growing threat of ghost guns.
