Mills signs Maine gun control measures into law  Just The News

(The Center Square) — Mainers will be required to wait at least three days to buy a firearm under a Democratic proposal approved by Gov. Janet Mills over the objections of Second Amendment groups, who plan to sue to block the requirements.

The proposal, which was approved by the Legislature in a party-line vote, sets a 72-hour waiting period for most gun purchases that was sought by gun control advocates in response to the Lewiston mass shooting.
