Three bills aimed at intending to reduce gun violence have cleared the state Senate.

The Senate on Thursday passed bills imposing a waiting period between the purchase and delivery of a firearm, requiring background checks for commercial gun sales, and enabling school boards to declare gun-free zones on school property.

All three bills previously passed the House. The Senate made changes to each bill, sending them back to the House.
