Description

Mayors across the Twin Cities metro and beyond are calling for the Minnesota Legislature to repeal a state law that prevents cities from enacting their own gun regulations.


The call comes in the wake of the August shooting at Annunciation Catholic Church and School. Two children were killed, and dozens of others were wounded during a back-to-school mass.


MPR News host Nina Moini talked with one of the mayors pushing for a state law change, Kim Norton of Rochester.
