    After this terrible tragedy in Parkland, we’re seeing the same thing from Congress that we saw after Sandy Hook, after Aurora, after Charleston, after San Bernardino, after Orlando, after Las Vegas, after Sutherland Springs: complete inaction.

        If my colleagues in Congress are so beholden to the NRA, so paralyzed by its chokehold, that they will turn their backs and bury their heads once again while more children die – then this is a monumental failure in leadership.

        Let me make this clear: This has nothing to do with the Second Amendment and everything to do with greed. The NRA doesn’t care about people – they care about money, and that’s it.

        Enough is enough. The NRA may be powerful, but so are you and your voice. I urge you to speak out and say shame on any lawmaker who won’t stand up to the NRA. Pay attention. Find out who. Vote them out this November.

        We need to ban semi-automatic assault weapons & bump stocks. We need to pass universal background checks & close the gun show loophole. We need to make sure those with a history of violent crimes cannot get guns.

        These votes are about keeping our children safe in schools. These votes will help keep people safe on the streets of their own communities. These votes will honor the tireless work of activists who’ve been speaking out against the scourge of gun violence for years.

        I came from a hunting family and when I first came to Congress, I had an “A” rating from the NRA. But 9 years ago when I came to the Senate, I met with the victims of gun violence and listened to their stories.

        The minute you meet a parent who’s lost a teenage child to gun violence, everything changes. From that moment, and for my entire service in the Senate, I’ve proudly voted against the NRA and have had an “F” rating.

        Listening makes change. Learning from others’ stories makes change. That’s why it’s important that these courageous students are speaking truth to power. As I prepare to make our case to my colleagues tomorrow, I urge you to keep speaking out. Raise your voices. Call for change.

        Kirsten, I really love you, but when will you stop pretending that YOU TOO were beholden to the NRA until it was no longer convenient for you.

        Kirsten has an "F" rating. She's on the right side now. Let's focus our energy on politicians who are still on the wrong side and see if we can get some of them to join us.

        I agree that she can definitely be welcome to the righteous side--but she can't pretend she doesn't have a past. That's all. This comes from a place of loving maintenance.

        That's fair - she does have a past. Actually so do I (I voted for Nixon). My concern is people who liked Bernie but refused to vote for Hillary.

        I'm concerned about them too--I just think Sen. Gillibrand needs to speak up on her change of heart. That's part of leadership. Rushing to shame others just feels (and is) disingenuous.
