Legislative findings and intent. The legislature finds and declares that firearm injuries and deaths have reached epidemic proportions, with firearm injuries ranked among the top ten causes of death among all Americans, and as the leading cause of death among young African-American males. The legislature further finds and declares that this epidemic necessitates public policies which address firearm violence and injury as a public health issue and that one critical component of such policies is an integrated and comprehensive statewide effort to accurately document the origins, incidence and nature of firearm violence and injury in New York state. The legislature also finds that dispersed and widely varied data and information related to incidents of firearm violence are presently collected by state and local law enforcement agencies; and that informa- tion and data related to the nature, severity and causes of firearm injuries are also regularly compiled by health care providers engaged in the treatment of such injuries. The legislature finds and declares that EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [ ] is old law to be omitted.
