Scrambling to respond to a recent spate of bloody gun massacres, U.S. lawmakers passed the most significant federal gun restrictions in decades on Friday, following years of false starts and failures to tighten gun laws.

The Bipartisan Safer Communities Act also would fund school safety and mental health programs.
