    HHS chief @SecAzar testified that researching gun violence is a "priority" for the agency. "We're in the science business and the evidence-generating business." It is a huge deal to finally have a GOP HHS chief saying this. I pray he follows through. http://bit.ly/2CqC6ox

        I also hope he follows through. This is a huge public health and safety concern

        Of course it is (or should be) a priority. But thanks to the NRA (and spinelessness of too many elected officials) Congress provides zero funding; any work to date has been privately funded. Did he demand the appropriations?

        Unfortunately, in today’s #GOP and specifically in this WH, it will likely get him fired.

        He'll pull back. They'll stall it. Whatever happens, they're going to force Democrats to do the work, and they'll sit back and lob criticism at it. All to avoid contradicting their owners at the NRA. NRA owns the GOP.

        Empty platitudes. Remember that the @GOP actively warred against #Pediatricians in #Florida when they wanted to educate families about #gun safety and criminalized the question: Is there a gun in the home?

        Why not? Patients are consumers after all. Corporations make guns and the drugs to patch them up. Doctors get to treat them so they can get a salary to pay their student loans. Irony, anyone?

        But the CDC was not allowed to continue with this as a public health issue. I am encouraged by this. We should study anything that kills people. Anything.
