* Obama to propose sweeping gun-law changes *
WASHINGTON - U.S. President Barack Obama's gun-law plan includes expanded background checks and bans on assault weapons and high-capacity clips, the White House said.

"The president has made clear that he intends to take a comprehensive approach," White House spokesman Jay Carney said ahead of Obama's Wednesday announcement of the most sweeping proposed changes to gun laws in nearly two decades.

Obama "has also made clear that there are specific legislative actions that he will continue to call on Congress to take, including the assault-weapons ban, including a measure to ban high-capacity magazine clips, including an effort to close the very big loopholes in the background-check system in our country," Carney said.

Obama and Vice President Joe Biden, who developed the administration's proposals, were to unveil the package at the White House at 11:55 a.m., the White House said.

They were to be accompanied by children who wrote to Obama after last month's Sandy Hook Elementary school mass shooting in Newtown, Conn., the White House said.
