In 1996 the NRA lobbied congress to pass the Dickey Amendment which prohibits the Centers for Disease Control from researching ways to reduce gun violence & gun fatalities. /1
The CDC researches ALL leading causes of death in America EXCEPT for gun violence. It’s ridiculous that Republicans have blocked the CDC from treating gun violence as a public health problem since 1996. We MUST allow the CDC to do its job properly!https://www.feinstein.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/press-releases?ID=83FAE453-A991-4C17-92AA-9E8C22DD6D19 …

Senator Feinstein, it’s been a year since this photo was taken. Please tell the American people what grave news you and Grassley were told. When the country learns what Republicans have kept hidden, the GOP should no longer be able to block ANYTHING.pic.twitter.com/TV6a4PH1zy

How about research into drunk or drugged drivers and people that can't walk or drive without their noses stuck in a cellphone?The majority of gun deaths are suicide using a handgun then illegal handguns used by gangs in democrats inner cities terrorized by gangs.
