Dems introduce bill to require background checks on ammunition sales

A pair of Democratic lawmakers are introducing legislation to require a background check for all firearm ammunition sales.
Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) and Rep.Debbie Wasserman Schultz(D-Fla.) said on Monday they had introduced the bill, known as the Ammunition Background Check Act of 2018, arguing it would help close a "loophole" in the current law.
