The announcement was yet another example of all show, no action policies. The agreement is a resounding dud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">New Window Dressing<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Democratic Governors Kathy Hochul of New York, Phil Murphy of New Jersey, Tom Wolf of Pennsylvania and Ned Lamont of Connecticut have more than a dozen years of executive experience between them, yet three of their states are among the worst in the nation for crimes committed with a firearm and all four have some of the strictest existing gun control laws in the nation. They got together for the major announcement to remedy their problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The four states will begin sharing gun crime data to increase enforcement of gun control measures and \u201ccatch illegal gun sellers and users.\u201d To do so, the governors pledged that law enforcement agencies from each state will share the \u201ceTrace\u201d reports they receive from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF). The agreement says each state can maintain its own data, can choose which data to share or withhold, choose how often or not to share data and that they\u2019ll let each other know if individual sensitive data is&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/four-northeastern-state-governors-announce-agreement-to-share-crime-gun-data\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"northeast-governors-doozy-gun-data-announcement-actually-a-dud\" title=\"Northeast Governors' Doozy Gun Data Announcement Actually A Dud\"><strong>hacked, leaked or misused<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Newly-minted New York Gov.
