Matthews outlined her eight point plan in a news release, and it includes:

1. A national registry for all gun and ammunition sales
2. Background checks for ammunition sales
3. Universal and effective background checks for all gun purchases, accompanied by a seven-day waiting period
4. Ban assault weapons and high capacity magazines
5. Implement smart gun technology
6. Support state-based solutions
7. Back public campaigns to instill responsible gun safety practices
8. Boost child safety and education

Matthews says her experience as a reporter covering gun violence in D.C. and also the Beltway sniper crisis are reasons she is advocating for gun control. “It is this first-hand experience as a mother and as a reporter covering gun deaths that stokes my passion for tougher gun safety laws,” Matthews said.
