Sens. Charles Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand have appealed to the Obama administration to prevent illegal guns from being brought to New York and make it far more difficult for the mentally handicapped and criminals to obtain firearms, while protecting law-abiding gun owners.
One week after the mass shootings that killed 26 people at a Connecticut elementary school, the nation's largest gun-rights lobby said the solution to preventing further attacks like the one in Newtown is not with gun control.

Obama plays basketball and Romney campaigns on Election Day
Can anyone other than Vice President Joe Biden himself imagine Joe Biden as a presidential candidate after all we've learned about him in the past four years while he has sat one heartbeat away from the presidency?
Both political parties – Republicans and Democrats – are known for getting carelessly carried away with name calling when stakes and tensions are high in the political arena. Regardless, there is no excuse for the type of name-calling that has surfaced over the past week.
Mitt Romney and President Obama both spent Tuesday campaigning in some key battleground states.
Romney won this debate in more ways than one – most impressively due to his dignified style.
It's great that Obama made the binders the headlines since last Tuesday night's debate because the truth about Mitt Romney's record on hiring women and the truth about Obama's alleged war on women is finally coming out – and helping Romney in the polls.
There were so many blatant signs of Obama-favored bias displayed by CNN political correspondent Candy Crowley that one scarcely knows where to begin. She caused the difference between Romney's huge win in the first debate and his extremely narrow win in the second.
Romney so misrepresented his record in Denver that it will be hard for the former Massachusetts Governor to walk it back tonight because Romney will be lying about his record to a room full of voters.
Much like the first debate, GOP presidential contender Mitt Romney will win the second debate as well but on a much smaller scale. The reasons for the second win in a row will be quite different on the surface but will be much the same beneath the surface.
The vice presidential candidates were back on the campaign trail Friday following there sometimes "rock 'em, sock 'em" debate on Thursday night.
There's a lot of ground to cover from Thursday night's debate at Centre College in Danville, Kentucky between Mitt Romney's running mate - Rep. Paul Ryan - and Vice President Joe Biden.
Mitt Romney's apprentice salesman stepped on the stage last night and delivered his talking points, but little more. Throughout the night, Joe Biden delivered lesson after lesson to the ambitious young Congressman from Wisconsin.
Both candidates did what they had set out to do. Biden reached out to his base, and Ryan spoke to those who don't like the direction the country is headed. Republicans are likely not happy that Ryan didn't deliver the knock-out debate Mitt Romney did a week ago while Democrats are, as previously stated, ecstatic Biden didn't have a bad night.
