Healey Will Block Effort To Suspend Gun Law
As Law Kicks In, Volunteers Will Now Look To Repeal It In 2026
STATE HOUSE, BOSTON, OCT. 1, 2024…..Gov. Maura Healey plans Wednesday to immediately implement a sweeping gun reform law, in the process blocking opponents who appear to be on the verge of suspending the law for more than two years until voters get the final say.
A spokesperson for the governor said Healey will sign an emergency preamble for the law finalized this summer, allowing many provisions to take effect right away instead on Oct. 23, which is 90 days after the governor signed the law.
