David Yancey, R-Newport News, speaks to the media prior to the opening ceremonies of the 2018 session of the Virginia House of Delegates at the Capitol in Richmond, Va. Yancey says he thinks his gun control idea, which tackles the problem from a new angle, could gain bi-partisan support in July’s 2019 special session. On the heels of the Virginia Beach mass shooting in May, Virginia lawmakers will convene for a special session on gun control July 9. Yancey wants to bring a federal procedure to the state level that would crack down on illegal firearms trading. (AP Photo/Steve Helber, File)
