President Trump has met with students and parents of Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School, state Governors, and NRA leader Wayne LaPierre to discuss the initiation of safer schools and communities. According to Press Secretary Sarah Sanders, the goal of the administration is to "protect the rights of law-abiding Americans, while keeping guns out of the hands of those who pose a danger to themselves and society." Here's how Trump stands on various gun control measures:

Ever since the Las Vegas shooting, there has been a call for additional regulations on bump stocks, which even received support from the NRA. President Trump signed an executive memo directing the ATF and Department of Justice to work on solutions for the banning of bump stocks, an object which converts a semi-automatic weapon into having rapid firing potential. "If we cannot find an administrative fix, we would support a legislative solution to complete that," Sanders stated. The outlawing of bump stocks has also received bipartisan support among members of Congress, however, even with legislative initiatives, there has been no success in passing legislation to ban bump stocks.
