California governor signs law allowing gun violence victims to sue firearm manufactures for damages
CNN
California Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a law Tuesday that clears the path for gun violence victims to file civil suits against the companies that manufacture the firearms used in crimes.
The move effectively tightens gun laws in California, which has the strictest gun safety measures in the nation, according to the Giffords Law Center.
"To the victims of gun violence and their families: California stands with you. The gun industry can no longer hide from the devastating harm their products cause," Newsom said in a news release.
