Pittsburgh City Council member Darlene Harris, left, speaks on a vote on gun-control legislation as fellow council members Corey O'Connor, right, and Theresa Smith, center, have a discussion, during a City Council meeting, Wednesday, March 27, 2019, in Pittsburgh. The bill passed as members voted 6-3 to pass tentative approval to the gun-control legislation introduced in the wake of the synagogue massacre last October. The legislation would place restrictions on military-style assault weapons like the AR-15 rifle that authorities say was used in the attack that killed 11 and wounded seven. A final vote will take place next week. Harris, Smith and Anthony Coghill voted against the bill O'Connor co-sponsored. (AP Photo/Keith Srakocic)
