The Illinois House passed a bill to ban assault weapons after a shooting at the July 4 parade in Highland Park left seven people dead. Proponents of the bill say it will stand despite a Supreme Court ruling that paved the way for more people to carry.
Harper and state Rep. Bob Morgan hope that by making the prevention of gun trafficking a core mission of the state police, they will lower both those numbers.
“We did what we could to make sure no other community would experience the ripple of trauma we experienced that is just devastating,” Morgan told The Washington Post.
