(09:24) SACRAMENTO – In the days following the mass shooting in Orlando, California lawmakers have approved a package of bills that would implement a number of gun control measures. On Tuesday, both public safety committees in the Legislature approved nearly a dozen bills, including one that would require background checks for ammunition purchases. Other pieces of legislation in the package would ban specific types of rifles, as well as require gun owners to turn in or destroy high-capacity magazines and report lost or stolen firearms. The bill package now heads to the Assembly’s appropriations committee for further consideration. (S.G.)
