Mr. Woodfin\u2019s brother was killed by gun violence, and his city has been grieving after <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/09\/22\/us\/shooting-birmingham-alabama.html\" title=\"\">a mass shooting<\/a> left four people dead last week. Scores of activists and gun violence survivors attended.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The event was timed to the first anniversary of the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention, which Mr. Biden created last year <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2022\/06\/25\/us\/politics\/gun-control-bill-biden.html\" title=\"\">after signing<\/a> the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, the first major gun safety bill in nearly 30 years. It was also a chance for Mr. Biden to pass the baton to the official who heads that office: Vice President Kamala Harris, who is leaning into gun violence prevention as an issue as she campaigns to succeed Mr. Biden.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cWe know how to stop these tragedies, and it is a false choice to suggest you are either in favor of the Second Amendment or you want to take everyone\u2019s guns away,\u201d said Ms. Harris, who spoke before Mr. Biden and who has said while campaigning that <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/09\/10\/us\/politics\/kamala-harris-gun.html\" title=\"\">she owns a firearm<\/a> for self-protection. \u201cI am in favor of the Second Amendment, and I believe we need to reinstate the assault weapons ban.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">She was referring to a provision in the 1994 crime bill, spearheaded by Mr. Biden when he was a senator, that banned certain types of military-style assault weapons for 10 years. The ban expired in 2004, <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2004\/09\/09\/politics\/effort-to-renew-weapons-ban-falters-on-hill.html\" title=\"\">when Congress refused<\/a> to renew it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The executive orders, which Mr. Biden signed at the conclusion of the ceremony, do not have the force of law. Should former President Donald J. Trump win the White House in November, he could easily reverse them.<\/p>\n<div class=\"css-1336jj\">\n<div class=\"css-121kum4\">\n<div class=\"css-asuuk5\"><noscript><\/p>\n<div class=\"css-7axq9l\" data-testid=\"optimistic-truncator-noscript\"><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"css-1b5b8u1\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M2.5 12a9.5 9.5 0 1 1 19 0 9.5 9.5 0 0 1-19 0Zm8.5 1.75v-7.5h2v7.5h-2Zm0 2v2h2v-2h-2Z\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\"\/><\/svg><\/p>\n<div data-testid=\"optimistic-truncator-noscript-message\" class=\"css-6yo1no\">\n<p class=\"css-3kpklk\">We are having trouble retrieving the article content.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-3kpklk\">Please enable JavaScript in your browser settings.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/noscript><\/p>\n<div class=\"css-1dv1kvn\" id=\"optimistic-truncator-a11y\" tabindex=\"-1\">\n<hr\/>\n<p>Thank you for your patience while we verify access.
