WASHINGTON (AP) — Lawmakers from 39 states came to the White House for a discussion with Biden administration officials about ways to better reduce gun violence. The event on Wednesday was run by the Office of Gun Violence Prevention, a new undertaking from President Joe Biden that was announced in September. He’s asked Vice President Kamala Harris to oversee the initiative, and she told the nearly 100 lawmakers from around that country that “you’re not in it alone.” The office’s director, Stefanie Feldman, says officials “hear all the time” from state legislators that they want to do more to reduce gun violence.” She says the question is, “What should they do and how?”
