Poll: Where Michigan voters stand on proposed gun law reforms after Michigan State shooting

The majority of Michigan voters -- Democrats, Republicans and Independents -- support newly proposed gun law reforms moving through the state Legislature, according to a new WDIV/Detroit News survey.

The package of bills would enhance background checks, establish red flag laws and safe storage laws. The new WDIV/Detroit News survey shows strong bipartisan support for the package. The survey comes just weeks after the mass shooting at Michigan State University.

Here are some of the key results from the March 2023 survey:

More than 77% of voters who identified as Republicans support the background check law, including 77.8% of Republican gun owners.

That's the real reason we'll probably never see the kind of gun control they enacted in the U.K., Australia and elsewhere - even after one mass shooting.
