* First, to require child safety locks for all handguns that are sold.

* Third, to pass the president's handgun licensing proposal, which requires safety certification for all handgun purchasers.
* Fourth, to support research in smart gun technology which can limit a gun's use to its authorized owner.
And finally, to close the gun show loophole by requiring a background check for all gun purchases at gun shows.
