A total of 61 percent of New Yorkers are continuing to back the SAFE Act, according to a new Siena Research Institute poll out Monday.

Since last month's deadly high school shooting in Parkland, Florida – lawmakers across the country have been discussing tougher gun control laws.

Those measures include stronger background checks and banning bump stocks.

The poll also found that 69 percent of New Yorkers oppose arming teachers.

On Sunday, Governor Andrew Cuomo endorsed a provision that would extend background checks for gun purchases up to 10 days.

In all, 90 percent of voters surveyed say they support that extension.

The poll of 772 registered voters was conducted from March 11 to March 16 and has a margin of error of 4 percentage points.
