    Though I am 1 of 200 Members sponsoring a universal background check bill, bc only 11 of the 200 sponsors are Republicans, hardly a majority of the majority party, Speaker Ryan refuses to permit a vote on this reasonable #gunsafety measure. This is NRA rule, not majority rule.

        I'd expect nothing else from him. As a Texan and your constituent I can only hope Wisconsinites show Ryan the door and vote for Randy Bryce @IronStache in November.

        Ban and repurchase semi/automatic weapons or the accessories that mutilate humans. Close the loopholes on background checks Require classes and licences for gun owners. You know, reasonable laws for weapons only made to slaughter!

        Ryan is about to go the way of Cantor, but to a working-class Dem.

        Universal background check is a violation of the 10th Amendment.... it's also an illegal national firearm registry and will be challenged in the Supreme Court at some point.

        Unbelievable! Hope Ryan knows he just might lose mid-term election because we need a speaker that cares about Americans and what's best for us rather than the NRA.

        I am so sick of blockade style governance sir. What ever happened to doing the right thing because it’s the right thing??? I miss the greatness of the USA. Step up. Tell your fellow congressmen to stand up to a populist pres who couldn’t even win popular vote.

        I can’t believe the person who represents me would ever support such a bill. My vote will be for someone to replace you who actually cares about American’s freedoms.
