Since last year’s shooting in Uvalde, Texas, more than 1,700 gun-related bills have been introduced in state legislatures, and 93 have been signed into law. However, 56% of those bills have either expanded access to firearms or benefited the gun manufacturing industry, according to Axios. In 17 states, only bills that have loosened gun restrictions have been passed. In 14 of those 17 states, Republicans control both chambers of the state legislature and the governor's office, while three of those states have GOP-controlled legislatures and Democratic governors.
