Byron Brown has announced his intention to run for another term as Mayor of Buffalo.
Although Brown’s record in the State Senate was poor, he has largely avoided gun issues as Mayor except for some focus on “illegal” guns. Examples include:
- “Mayor Byron W. Brown’s 7th Gun BuyBack Program“
- “Buffalo marks Gun Violence Awareness Month with tip campaign“
- “Violence, homicides down in Buffalo“
Notably, Brown did not come out in support of the SAFE Act and that may have cost him the Lt. Governor’s spot.
Brown faces a likely primary challenge from Comptroller Mark Schroeder. Schroeder has a positive record of supporting 2A during his time in the State Assembly.
