Firearms retailers in Montgomery County will be required to distribute suicide prevention literature to customers under new legislation passed by the Montgomery County Council on Tuesday. “I introduced [the bill] to raise awareness about suicide prevention and to urge Montgomery County to do more than simply express our thoughts and prayers every time we see a tragedy occur,” said councilmember Evan Glass (D-At-large), lead sponsor of the Suicide Awareness and Firearm Education (SAFE) Act, before the vote.
