President Obama has asked White House senior adviser Valerie Jarrett to supply him with new executive orders on gun control “in short order.”
Jarrett confirmed Obama’s plans while speaking at a vigil for victims of the Dec. 12, 2012, shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, by 20-year-old Adam Lanza, the Associated Press reported.
Six adults and 20 children were killed at Sandy Hook Elementary School before Lanza committed suicide. He also executed his mother in their home earlier that day.

“At this point, I still don’t have an update on the progress the administration is making on scrubbing the rules,” White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest told reporters during his daily briefing, the Hill reported.
The White House plans to close what it calls the “gun show loophole,” which allegedly allows criminals to circumvent background checks through the National Instant Criminal Background Check System, or NICS.
In short, Obama wants background checks on as many private transfers of firearms as possible. He may do that by attempting to change the definition of what constitutes a high-volume dealer.
