Harris: As President, I’ll Use Executive Action to Expand Background Checks, Take Away Gun Dealers’ Licenses

EXCERPT:

HARRIS: "Right. So under the Harris administration, I will give the United States Congress 100 days to pull their act together on this and put a bill on my desk for signature. And if they do not, I will take executive action, as you mentioned, and in particular put in place a comprehensive background check requirement. I will also make sure that we give the ATF the resources that it needs to take the licenses of gun dealers who violate the law. Wolf, you should know, 90 percent of the guns associated with crime are sold by just five percent of the gun dealers. So we need to take those licenses. And then the third piece is that I’m prepared to take executive action to ban the importation of assault weapons into our country. Why am I prepared to do all of this? Because it is time to take action. Words are not enough. Beautiful speeches are not enough. Great ideas are not enough. Grand gestures are not enough. We need to take action. The people of our country deserve it."
