Since the beginning of this year, the number of mass shootings in the United States has been staggering.
Unfortunately, America has been plagued by mass shootings for years, and little progress has been made in terms of common-sense gun laws.
This time, there’s a chance that things will change: A proposal has been drafted that has bipartisan support.
“On Sunday, a bipartisan group of 20 senators reached an agreement on a bipartisan gun safety framework, marking a significant step forward in Congress’ efforts to address recent back-to-back mass shootings.” —Marianne Levine and Burgess Everett
The following items are included in the proposal:
Gun buyers under the age of 21 are subjected to extra scrutiny.
Grants to states to help them put red flag laws in place
New funds will be spent on mental health treatments and school safety.
Individuals with a history of domestic violence face stricter restrictions.
These restrictions are minor in comparison to what I would like to see, but I am grateful for the progress made: it demonstrates that difficult discussions can lead to bipartisan agreements and a degree of compromise, which is encouraging.
In fact, it “would be the most significant gun safety legislation to pass Congress in decades,” according to President Biden.
However, converting this proposal into actual legislation could be a difficult task.
“While Sunday’s announcement is a significant step forward, turning a framework into a bill can be difficult. For example, it took more than six weeks between the introduction of a framework by negotiators and the Senate adoption of the eventual law during last year’s bipartisan infrastructure deliberations. And a Republican aide involved in the talks underscored that the accord reached on Sunday was an ‘agreement on ideas, not legislative text.'” —Marianne Levine and Burgess Everett
There are some Republicans who are dubious of regulations and would like to see them reduced.
“In the three weeks since the elementary school shooting in Uvalde, Texas, a larger bipartisan group has had its own regular sessions on weapons. With only 50 Senate seats under Democratic control, the support of ten Republicans is necessary to moving forward.” —Marianne Levine and Burgess Everett
If this idea passes, it will be a significant step forward in helping many Americans feel comfortable in their neighbourhoods while also respecting the second amendment rights that many cherish.
Nonetheless, there is certainly room for improvement.
This year, New Mexico has been ravaged by severe wildfires, prompting Governor Grisham to request a postponement of a planned migrant relocation from the US-Mexico border to Albuquerque, New Mexico.
It’s no secret that real estate prices are skyrocketing right now, but you may be surprised to learn that some homeowners are paying premiums of up to 60% “”There’s more.”
The most inflated property markets in the country were found in a recent study by Florida Atlantic University and Florida International University. What is the most important discovery? Buyers in the most overvalued market, Boise, Idaho, are paying a whopping 73 per cent premium, thanks in part to the recent boom in remote work. According to the researchers, homes in Boise should cost on average $299,202 based on historical data. Instead, the average buyer pays $516,548 — nearly $217,000 more than they should.” —Sarah Hansen is a writer.
Wildfires have already caused a lot of damage in New Mexico. Unfortunately, several of them are still burning, and the Midnight Fire near El Rito has grown considerably.
A body was discovered on Ridgetop Road early Monday morning. This man, who was most likely in his 60s, appeared to have committed suicide.” Santa Fe police Chief Paul Joye confirmed Monday evening that a body discovered on a trail near Ridgetop Road and Camino Francisca early Monday morning was that of a man who is believed to have committed suicide. Police and firefighters were dispatched to reports of a man lying on the ground around 7:15 a.m.
The man, in his 60s, had a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head, according to Joye, and a note was discovered at the scene.” — The New Mexican is a newspaper published in New Mexico.
Real estate prices are skyrocketing, which is perhaps unsurprising. As of May 2022, the average price for a detached, single-family home in the Albuquerque area is no less than $401,326.
At first glance, Donald Trump appears to be a charming businessman with a huge ego who entered politics with it. He has misplaced the courage to shock audiences because, apparently, he lacks the self-control to filter his words: he is not afraid to be hateful to gain attention and make a point, to the point where it appears that his political speeches are nothing more than a farce of errors.
On Thursday night, police are looking for a man who shot and killed Dustin Banteah with a sawed-off shotgun. “Police are looking for a man who allegedly shot and killed a person at an apartment complex in Northeast Albuquerque late Thursday night with a sawed-off shotgun.” —Matthew Reisen is a writer.

The price of fuel has risen dramatically as a result of recent events, with the national average now standing at $5 a gallon. “The average price on Saturday, according to AAA, was a fraction of a penny over $5.00. In some places of the country, particularly California, drivers are paying substantially more.” —David Koenig and Julie Walker, respectively.
President Biden isn’t Trump, and he wasn’t my first choice either. I believe many Americans feel the same way: he was probably quite dated in his views on race during the debates, and his ties to the oil and gas business have infuriated environmental groups.
