Searched quick so I don't know if this is a dupe or not....
Just read this article a little while ago. Seems like our wonderful senator is trying to bribe other states to copy some of the bills that have been shoved down our throats here in MA. I wonder if he thinks that since he can't pass this through DC the 'traditional' way he'll go about it by using the almighty $ as a means to his end.
This sleaze-ball wants to use tax-payer money to pay for this BS....

U.S. Sen. Ed Markey proposes $100M bill to extend Massachusetts gun standards nationwide
BOSTON - U.S. Sen. Ed Markey, D-Massachusetts, is proposing a bill that would offer $20 million annually for five years in incentive money for states that bring their gun licensing standards in line with those in Massachusetts, which are among the strictest in the country.
"Our gun safety bills are a model for other states, and I believe for the U.S. Congress to follow," Markey said, flanked by police officials at a Monday press conference at the Boston Police Department headquarters.
