Ohio Governor Releases Gun Violence Plan With ‘Red Flag’ Laws Noticeably Absent From Final Proposal

Following the mass shooting in Dayton, Ohio, Republican Gov. Mike DeWine promised to "do something" about gun violence in the state. While he previously voiced support for "red flag" laws, the governor's administration felt that the legislation would be “inadequate and unworkable.” The proposal in DeWine's final version builds on the existing “pink slip” law, which allows for people assessed by mental health experts in a psychiatric facility.
