I’m afraid that the tired response will be that it wouldn’t have helped. Okay, then draft other legislation that would have. Pass it and send it back our way. I’ve got a feeling the House would support it, and quickly. /2

We have to work at every level of our government and in our society to address issues of mental health, hate crimes, and safety in our communities. There’s just no time, and innocent lives depend on it and us. /3

Waiting in the Senate are two background check bills that have already passed the House. Call your Senators and demand action. I have cosponsored a bill banning assault rifles; it sits in the House waiting a vote. /4

Call your representatives and demand consideration. Call your state representatives and demand action. It is past time that we all move to keep our citizens and communities safe. Our hearts are with the people of El Paso and Dayton. We must act.
