    Moments of silence have absolutely no effect on the safety of American school children. There have been 18 school shootings this year, moments of silence have done nothing to prevent them. Congress needs to take action now to protect school children and teachers. #GunReformNowpic.twitter.com/Jem9WHBFKw

        GOP is perpetually silent, silent about anything on the right side of any issue.

        @NRA/Republicans like to talk “good guys and bad guys with guns.” Their plan for the past TWENTY YEARS seems to be to make it as easy as possible for BAD GUYS to get guns!

        Moment of silence? 5 years since Sandy Hook, and Congress has been silent. Trump met with the NRA at the WH for the 5th anniversary.

        But Steve, I prayed so hard after the last mass shooting that I thought this could never happen again. Are you saying we need to actually take action? Fuck the spineless @GOP. They can keep their moment of silence and their god damn prayers.

        GOP “thoughts and prayers” are a punchline at this point. It’s the dance they do when this happens to make it seem like they care. They don’t care enough to let a bunch of dead kids get their way of getting their NRA payoffs. The first thing they did in trump’s presidency -pic.twitter.com/MsbWxy4jvQ

        The NRA doesn't want moments of silence, they want total silence. It's heartening to know that you're diametrically apposed to staying silent on this issue.

        Thank you for your leadership. Closing the loopholes in our background check system, fully funding and expanding NICS, reinstating the ban on military-style weapons, bump stocks, and magazines AND requiring their forfeiture are all good starts #ExpectUs

        Hey Steve, Your right that moments of silence have done nothing. Apparently anything that you may have done over the years of your career have done nothing either...

        I agree there needs to be some stricter gun laws but I also believe staying silent about Mental Health is just as bad.
