Those gun bans weren’t passed until 2023, which really puts the lie to the assertion that we stopped talking about it.
Maybe it’s more accurate to say we ran out of new things to say about it, and that’s why it’s not front and center in the news at this current moment. It’s also a hugely divisive issue and nobody seems to have a solution to the problem that doesn’t just piss off a bunch of other people, so in an election year it’s the last thing policy makers want to bring up.
The bump stock ban was enacted in 2018 which marked the end of coverage for the shooting. It wasn’t passed, it was dictated by arbitrary fiat. After it passed continued discussion could have had a negative impact, especially due to the investigation deliberately refusing to determine if they were actually used or not.
