In response to the horrific killing of school children in Connecticut last month, the Obama administration is now advancing a series of executive orders and legislative proposals that the Washington Post is describing as “the most expansive gun-control agenda in generations.” Tim Lynch, who directs Cato’s Project on Criminal Justice, will critique the president’s response to this recent tragedy, provide an update on what’s happening in Washington, and evaluate the likely consequences for the Second Amendment.

This special online-only series is an opportunity to hear from Cato’s policy staff. Please note that it is not necessary to download any software to watch the briefing online; no reservation is necessary.

Our thanks for your continued support of the Cato Institute. We hope you’ll join in on the discussion.
