Senator Ron Wyden has introduced a new bill that proposes raising the legal age for purchasing assault weapons from 18 to 21. This legislation, part of a broader response to escalating gun violence, highlights statistics revealing that over 85 percent of fatalities in public mass shootings are linked to assault rifles, emphasizing the critical need for stricter regulations.

The proposed Age 21 Act, co-sponsored by notable senators including Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren, seeks to align the purchase age of assault weapons with that of handguns. It also aims to restrict access for individuals under 21 while allowing exceptions for service members and law enforcement. With gun-related deaths in the U.S. reaching over 46,000 in 2023, supporters believe this bill could be a pivotal step toward reducing future tragedies involving firearms.
