Every year, Chuck commits to traveling to all62 counties in New York to meet with constituents.
On February 19th, 2024, standing with Onondaga County criminal prosecutors, Onondaga County Sheriffs, City of Syracuse police officers and local public officials, U.S. Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer today revealed that, for the first time in a decade, the key federal provision that makes fully-plastic undetectable ghost guns illegal is set to expire next month.Â
Schumer is now launching his push to reauthorize the bipartisan Undetectable Firearms Act to ensure undetectable, fully-plastic guns remain illegal and stop a potential influx of these weapons on the streets of New York. Schumer said that allowing this law to lapse would create a terrifying new reality of legally-made plastic firearms that could slip through metal detectors and other security, putting law enforcement and communities across America at risk.
