“I am sick and tired of it. We have to act.'

In a tweet responding to the tragedy on Tuesday night, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul said, “it’s past time to put an end to these needless tragedies.”

Mayor Eric Adams posted on Twitter on Tuesday evening, not long after speaking at a press conference in which officials announced the arrest of a suspect who“America’s toxic gun culture,” the mayor said, has fueled mass shootings like the one in Texas and Buffalo, as well as last Sunday’s shooting in Manhattan.

“This legislation will not only make it harder for guns to fall into the wrong hands, but will also give law enforcement greater tools to protect communities – including our children – from gun violence," he said. “Let us not delay even one day more.”
