Both chambers have said school safety is a priority this session after a gunman killed 19 children and two teachers at a Uvalde elementary school last year.
Both have passed school safety legislation, such as a Senate bill that includes many of the provisions in the House bill passed Sunday. However, parents of the Uvalde victims were left disappointed after the raise-the-age bill they advocated for. The bill would have changed the age to legally purchase semi-automatic rifles from 18 to 21.
“I know that it's an expensive amendment. I just don't want any of us to go home and hear from our constituents that we provided them some more unfunded mandates,” Menéndez said. The bill does keep a provision where each campus would get $15,000 for security upgrades on top of other allotments already included in both chambers’ budget proposals.
