President Joe Biden will announce the creation of the first-ever federal office of gun violence prevention on Friday, fulfilling a key demand of gun safety activists as legislation remains stalled in Congress, according to two people with direct knowledge of the White House’s plans.
Stefanie Feldman, a longtime Biden aide who previously worked on the Domestic Policy Council, will play a leading role, the people said.
Greg Jackson, executive director of the Community Justice Action Fund, and Rob Wilcox, the senior director for federal government affairs at Everytown for Gun Safety, are expected to hold key roles in the office alongside Feldman, who has worked on gun policy for more than a decade and still oversees the policy portfolio at the White House. The creation of the office was first reported by The Washington Post.

I’m just pointing out the last president and last political party that made a run for people’s guns.
He wasnt exactly a party regular, by any stretch of the imagination. And he got kicked out after only one term.
Who’s leading the contest for Republican nominee right now?

Why aren’t you upset that he has tried and will try again to take your guns?

Well we started off talking about gun violence but you don’t think talking about guns while discussing gun violence is fair to the guns.
Then you switched to Biden and the DNC taking your guns even though that hasn’t happened and Trump was the last president to come after gun rights. But you don’t want to talk about that either.
I’m surprised you haven’t made up something outlandish like Biden wanting to cut off your penis and turn you into a cat girl or something because why have a real conversation when you can just get outraged about the culture war of the day.
