On Tuesday, President Joe Biden announced his latest executive action to curb gun violence, likely the most comprehensive action he could take for the duration of his presidency given the current makeup of Congress.
Mr Biden signed the order in Monterey Park, California, where a gunman killed 11 people and injured nine before he killed himself following a Lunar New Year festival in a largely Asian-American community. The executive order would require that all background checks for firearms that are required by law occur prior to a firearm purchase.
