There’s a certain model of handgun that’s popular with gun owners across the country. It’s popular with law enforcement too.
But recently, some agencies- including right here in Tampa Bay- opted to remove the Sig Sauer P320 from their arsenals because of safety concerns.
On this episode you'll hear from a journalist who's been covering this issue for The Trace and Mother Jones. Ava Sasani explains why some police departments and sheriff’s offices don’t want officers using this gun- and why these weapons are being sold back to the general public.
But first - an update on state politics. You remember back at the start of May, lawmakers were supposed to wrap up their two month lawmaking stint by passing a budget. Only- they didn’t.
WUSF’s Douglas Soule, part of the 'Your Florida' team reporting on how state government affects you, joins Florida Matters to walk us through what lawmakers need to do to pass a budget- and what could happen if they can't reach an agreement by the end of June.
