Washington governor signs three gun-control bills into law

Democrats and activists applaud state for new legislation, which includes a ban on the sale of certain semi-automatic rifles

Washington's Governor Jay Inslee signed a trio of bills meant to prevent gun violence on Tuesday - one banning the sale of certain semi-automatic rifles, one imposing a 10-day waiting period on firearms purchases, and one clearing the way for lawsuits against gun makers or sellers in certain cases.

A crowd of gun-control activists and Democratic lawmakers broke into cheers as he signed the measures, which he said would not solve all gun violence but would save lives.
