Governor of Nevada Vetoes Three Gun Restriction Bills

Nevada Gov. Joe Lombardo (R) vetoed three pieces of legislation Wednesday that would have placed additional restrictions on gun ownership and purchasing in the state.

“I will not support legislation that infringes on the constitutional rights of Nevadans,” Lombardo said in a release. “As I stated in my letters, much of the legislation I vetoed today is in direct conflict with legal precedent and established constitutional protections. Therefore, I cannot support them.”

One of the bills would prohibit people in most cases from possessing a firearm within 100 feet of the entrance to a location that they know or reasonably should know is a polling place. It also would add language to strengthen restrictions on “ghost guns,” which are untraceable.
