Sens. Richard Blumenthal, Sheldon Whitehouse, and Chris Murphy, attend a rally outside the U.S. Capitol to demand the Senate take action on gun safety in the wake of the Robb Elementary School shooting in Texas, outside the Capitol in Washington, May 26, 2022.A more specific timeline remained unclear and previous such deals show it could be weeks before a draft law is ready, as was the case with the infrastructure package passed last year.
"In a less broken society, we would be able to require background checks every single time someone wants to buy a gun, and we would ban assault rifles outright.

TheView Based in previous Republican behavior, an agreement is of little value. An agreement has not been reached until it passes on the Senate floor, Then and only then h an agreement has been reached.
TheView YES. We must not let this be the ONLY effort, though, because that is exactly what republicans want... their token gun reform!! WhoopiGoldberg is correct... Just take away the military style assault rifles and high capacity magazines! AND DON'T STOP FIGHTING UNTIL WE GET THAT!
Will be writing my Members of Congress & two U.S Senators & providing them w/ evidence of what happens when a person is illegally, by mistake, placed in the hospital & 2nd amendment right is taken away from them. Done at the request of ppl stalking/harassing me. No legal relief.
Its not enough BanAssaultWeaponsNow
cPTSD is untreatable for some. Legislate Mercy&Respect Bill to go by choice please with respect and no stigma.
Could it be... something is being done...nah... bullshit...
This is a step but we need to go further and completely repeal the 2nd amendment. No one should own firearms when peoples lives are at stake!
Shall not be infringed!
What? You are bleeding from 10 places? Here's one band aide. Damn I'm a saint for helping.
