Nevada Governor Lombardo vetoes Democrat-backed gun control bills.

Nevada Governor Joe Lombardo, a Republican, has vetoed three gun control bills proposed by Democrats, including one that would have raised the legal age to purchase certain semi-automatic rifles and shotguns to 21. Lombardo cited legal precedent and established constitutional protections in his decision to veto the bills, which passed through the Legislature on party-line votes. Democrats and gun control advocates criticized the move, while Republicans have been unwilling to support such policies.
