              SUPPORT FOR JUNK GUN VIOLENCE PROTECTION ACT

 Mrs. BOXER. Mr. President, one month ago, I introduced 
legislation to prohibit the manufacture and sale of junk guns--the 
cheap, easily concealable handguns of choice for criminals. This bill 
has attracted the support of 27 California police chiefs and sheriffs 
and numerous law enforcement and anti-crime organizations.
  I ask that a list of supporters of the Junk Gun Violence Protection 
Act be printed in the Record.
  The list follows:
