Senate Status:

  • Junior Senator from California.
  • First elected to the Senate in 1992.

Quotes:


Senator Boxer joined colleagues to pass the 1994 Crime Bill, which banned assault weapons and established the COPS program, helping local law enforcement reduce crime to its lowest rate in 25 years. She supports reauthorization of both programs. She strongly supports a ban on cop-killer bullets and authored legislation to require child safety locks on guns.
