OLYMPIA Wash. (AP) – Washington Gov. Jay Inslee’s gun violence bills signed into law Tuesday, including banning the sale of specific semi-automatic weapons, is being criticized by gun advocates.

Washington is the 10th state to enact ‘common sense’ gun legislation, amid a rise in mass shootings around the country.
