The White House just announced two new executive measures for gun control. The announcement came to reporters via email.

"FACT SHEET: New Executive Actions to Reduce Gun Violence," the subject of the announcement reads./// Keeping Surplus Military Weapons Off Our Streets

· When the United States provides military firearms to its allies, either as direct commercial sales or through the foreign military sales or military assistance programs, those firearms may not be imported back into the United States without U.S. government approval. Since 2005, the U.S. Government has authorized requests to reimport more than 250,000 of these firearms.

· Today, the Administration is announcing a new policy of denying requests to bring military-grade firearms back into the United States to private entities, with only a few exceptions such as for museums. This new policy will help keep military-grade firearms off our streets.
