During a Thursday press conference, the Democrat announced her state is investing $220 million into preventing what she claims to be an influx of firearms entering in from other states. This includes $20 million for law enforcement despite her interest in removing the NYPD\u2019s qualified immunity, which would force officers to pay for their own legal fees should they be accused of misconduct.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201d I said, you know what? Let\u2019s triple that amount of money,\u201d stated the governor. \u201cOkay, let\u2019s triple that. So that\u2019s exactly the $20 million that we\u2019re investing in snug type programs as well as money for law enforcement, for retraining and to help them have strategies to reduce crime because we are better off when we are partnering together to reduce crime overall, are we not?\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Furthermore, Hochul said funds would be spent on establishing nonprofits and hospitals in areas where they have seen an uptick in gun related crimes. An additional $2 million will be used to to respond to the trauma experienced by gun crime victims.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">I\u2019m in Brooklyn announcing funding to fight gun violence, support victims and survivors, and bolster our state\u2019s response to this public health crisis.

She then went to double down on her efforts to circumvent the Supreme Court\u2019s ruling, which struck down New York\u2019s good cause provision for their concealed carry law.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201cSo I will close by saying we\u2019re going to continue changing our laws,\u201d stated the governor. \u201cWe allowed more extreme risk order protections. You\u2019ve heard about them. You know, they are when you know someone shows signs of doing danger, something harmful themselves and others. We actually are not powerless any longer that people can see. I see that. We\u2019re going to have training across the state for teachers and businesses and law enforcement and organizations like yours.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>In the meantime, New York has begun implementing new policies to make getting a concealed carry license difficult by having individuals turn over items and information such as their social media history.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/floridians-speak-on-president-bidens-negative-poll-results\/\">Floridians Speak On President Biden\u2019s Negative Poll Results<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FILE \u2013 New York Gov.
