No other governor has tried to declare an “emergency” around gun violence. (Photo: New York Governor’s Office)<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Tuesday declared a \u201cdisaster emergency\u201d to combat growing levels of \u201cgun violence\u201d in the state. Much like the emergency declarations in response to COVID-19, the declaration gives Cuomo more power and money to impose rules and regulations on New York residents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cJust like we did with COVID, New York is going to lead the nation once again with a comprehensive approach to combating and preventing gun violence, and our first step is acknowledging the problem with a first-in-the-nation disaster emergency on gun violence,\u201d Cuomo said. \u201cWhen we see an injustice we don’t look the other way, we stand up and fight it because that’s the New York way.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gun-rights groups were quick to point out that New York\u2019s response to COVID-19 was abysmal. New York saw the second most deaths per 100,000 residents of any state, and Cuomo is currently being investigated for how he handled nursing home patients who were diagnosed with the disease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSince he brought it up, Cuomo\u2019s incompetence in dealing with rising violent crime is as bad as how he botched the coronavirus outbreak by putting COVID-19 patients in nursing homes,\u201d said Alan Gottlieb, the chairman of the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms Chairman. \u201cTrying to fix blame on gun manufacturers and their perfectly legal products when the fault is with his own policies and his party\u2019s soft-on-criminals agenda is simply pitiful, and I don\u2019t think his broadcaster brother is going to be able to talk him out of this mess.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cuomo\u2019s declaration institutes a number of immediate \u201creforms,\u201d such as requiring state law enforcement to gather and report incident-level crime data and doling out $138 million for \u201cviolence intervention programs.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But it also creates two new agencies that will no doubt mandate further \u201creforms\u201d in the future. The Office of Gun Violence Prevention is tasked with coordinating \u201can all-of-government approach to ensure that state and local programs are advancing unified gun violence prevention strategies.\u201d Cuomo also plans to follow the lead of Joe Biden\u2019s \u201cfirearms trafficking strike forces<\/a>\u201d by instituting a Gun Trafficking Interdiction Unit within the New York State Police Department to \u201ccombat the flow of illegal guns onto New York streets.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cuomo\u2019s gun control bonanza didn\u2019t stop there. Immediately after declaring a \u201cgun violence\u201d disaster emergency, he signed two gun control bills<\/a> aimed at attacking gun manufacturers and prohibiting those accused but not convicted of felonies from purchasing a firearm. The first would allow anyone to take legal action against gun makers for creating a \u201cpublic nuisance.\u201d The second would prohibit any person who has an outstanding warrant for a \u201cfelony or serious offense\u201d from purchasing a firearm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gottlieb sees Cuomo\u2019s actions as in line with other mayors and governors who have blamed \u201cgun violence\u201d for the consequences of their bad criminal justice policies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs governor of New York, Andrew Cuomo has been a train wreck with mass casualties,\u201d Gottlieb said, \u201cand his emergency declaration is an intellectually dishonest maneuver to convince voters none of this was his fault. But he\u2019s the man in charge, he\u2019s been in charge and he\u2019s got to take ownership of this disaster.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
