Gov. Andrew Cuomo lauds the orders, but Congresswoman Elise Stefanik calls them unconstitutional.
âAfter four years of little more than deflection, NRA-kowtowing, thoughts, and prayers in the wake of Las Vegas, Sutherland Springs, El Paso, Parkland, and far too many more acts of gun violence, I applaud President Biden and Attorney General Garland for taking action yesterday to help keep guns out of the hands of dangerous people,â Cuomo said in a statement.
Bidenâs actions require buyers of homemade guns that often lack serial numbers to undergo background checks, and pistols with stabilizing braces like the one used in the Boulder, Colo., shooting would be classified as short-barreled rifles, which would require a federal license to own, a more thorough application process and a $200 tax under the National Firearms Act.

With summer approaching, the tradition of county fairs soon will be revived if the state allows.
County fair boards are making their plans, but some are concerned about whether they can afford to have their events this year.
Pike County Fair President Michael McKinnon said his board is planning events for a fair June 8-12 but, unless guidelines change, they may not be able to afford it.
“Right now, we’ve heard it is something like 35% capacity, special bathrooms and many other guidelines,” McKinnon said. “We’re just not sure if we’ll e able to do them.”
