Joe Biden’s campaign released an eleven-page comprehensive gun-control plan on Wednesday morning, in which the former vice president proposes the reintroduction of an assault-weapons ban but offers only a voluntary buyback for current owners.
The voluntary government-purchasing program distances the former vice president from other Democratic presidential candidates, including former congressman Beto O’Rourke, whose viral “hell yes, we’re going to take your AR-15,” comment in the third Democratic debate sparked controversy over the prospect of gun confiscation.
Biden’s proposal toes the line, as it lays out a ban of the manufacturing and selling of military-style assault weapons, but allows current assault-weapon owners the choice between selling to the government or registering the gun under the National Firearms Act.
