Kamala Harris said during a campaign event that she would use executive order to pause imports of the firearm until the ATF can analyze whether the ban should be permanent.
Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris announced Wednesday she would take executive action to ban the importation of AR-15-style weapons into the U.S. if she’s elected president.
There are roughly 15 to 20 million"modern sporting rifles,” which typically refers to semiautomatic rifles like the AR-15, in the United States according to a 2015 estimate from the National Shooting Sports Foundation. About 4 million of those firearms have been imported. The organization's estimate also includes weapons produced for law enforcement.
"We cannot any longer afford to allow people to make this a partisan issue," Harris said."President Bush knew that and President Clinton knew that. Both of them used executive action for similar reasons, so let's speak truth on this issue." Executive orders: Kamala Harris: 'I will take executive action' on gun control if I am elected president
