The Democratic Governors of New York, Rhode Island, New Jersey, and Connecticut have banded together to form a gun control coalition where information on potential criminals will be shared and resources allocated to fight this epidemic of mass shootings. This is a great move. If the federal government, paralyzed because of "public" servants who would rather serve the fascist and reactionary National Rifle Association instead of the children they took an oath to work for, then let the states pick up the slack. Other states are resorting to similar arrangements when it comes to climate change. Hopefully, other states, red as well as blue, will see the wisdom of this move and join this new partnership. This is a bright development that should be cheered.
