On Tuesday, President Obama is set unveil executive actions on gun control to fight what he has called America’s “epidemic of gun violence.” The actions are expected to include expanded background checks for firearm sales and improved reporting of lost and stolen weapons. We’ll talk with legal experts on both sides of the gun debate.

Guests:

Adam Winkler, constitutional law professor, UCLA School of Law; author of "Gunfight: The Battle Over the Right to Bear Arms in America"

Roger Pilon, vice president for Legal Affairs & Director of the Center for Constitutional, Cato Institute
