Washington D.C.–(ENEWSPF)–May 9, 2013. Today, as Rep. Janice Hahn (D-CA) introduces new legislation to protect the victims of stalking from gun violence, the Center for American Progress released a new report detailing how loopholes in current gun laws leave untold numbers of women vulnerable to gun violence committed by men who have harassed, stalked, threatened, and terrorized them often for years. The report examines four specific gaps in current law and cites case examples of how each gap enabled domestic abusers and stalkers to obtain the guns they used to murder women.
