Congressman Chris Smith (NJ-04) released the following statement today regarding the Curbelo legislation on bump stocks:

"Bump stocks, used in the mass shooting in Las Vegas, enable semi-automatic weapons to fire hundreds of rounds per minute," Smith said.

"I support the ban of these devices, and am an original cosponsor of bipartisan legislation introduced today by Rep. Carlos Curbelo (R-FL) to prohibit the manufacture, sale, and use of these devices," he said.
