United States Senator Martin Heinrich asserts that his bill, the GOSAFE Act, will "prevent future mass shootings and save lives" in a recent e-mailed newsletter.

For too long, Congress has been paralyzed when it comes to addressing mass shootings. In the last Congress, after the horrific tragedy in Uvalde, I was proud to play a leading role in negotiating and passing the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, which is making a meaningful difference in reducing homicides and prosecuting gun trafficking.
But we still have urgent, unfinished business when it comes to limiting access to firearms and firearm parts that are inherently dangerous and unusually lethal. That's why my new legislation, the GOSAFE Act, focuses on regulating the mechanisms that make certain weapons so dangerous—like high-capacity magazines and gas-operated actions – without sacrificing the rights of law-abiding gun owners.
