Issue Position: Gun Control

Issue Position

Troy understands that illegal gun sales and weapons trafficking are the real problems in our communities. That's why Troy has authored a number of laws to keep our neighborhoods safe while respecting the rights of law-abiding citizens -- including mandating that felons serving prison sentences for gun crimes don't get released early, and requiring the automatic forfeiture of any cars used in the illegal trafficking of weapons.

Troy's practical approach to decreasing gun crime has focused on proposing common sense reforms to keep our families safe. Additional measures that Troy has authored include combating the flow of guns through New Jersey through "straw purchases" and increasing the penalties for licensed dealers who knowingly sell firearms to people who will pass them on to those who are disqualified from possessing guns in New Jersey.
