Image capture by WAMC New York formally declared gun violence as a public emergency Tuesday, allowing more flexibility for the state to immediately spend money on gun violence prevention and intervention services. Gov. Andrew Cuomo, speaking to supporters in New York City, declared the emergency and outlined a multi-step plan to address gun violence, including new firearm laws. “Gun Violence is not only taking a human toll. It s taking an economic toll,” Cuomo said. “So we have no choice but to address it. It s the right thing to do.” As part of the new initiative, New York will create an Office of Gun Violence Prevention, housed in the state Department of Health. That office will be tasked with strategizing ways to reduce gun violence in New York, and overseeing that work.
