      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.

          Coming from a family of hunters you would understand that the prey you hunt with AR15 is not on 4 legs and has the right to life.

          Good for you to have a desire to uphold 2nd amendment but also realize the NRA has perverted the 2nd amendment for their own gain at the cost of lives.

          I don't have a problem with responsible gun ownership and use but after the Parkland shooting the NRA's talking points start with we're trying to take their guns away. No, some people souldn't have guns they can't even say that.

          Thank you, Senator Gillibrand, for admitting your past support for the NRA. That wlll "disarm" those who criticize you for your record and think the change makes you a hypcrite. I am your constituent, and I love bad puns.

          U say that your "A" rating from the NRA became an "F" after U moved from the House to the Senate. But we can't move every NRA supporter in the House to the Senate! Y didn't you listen to gun victims when you were still in the House? Y won't others? NRA $ is why. Tell the truth.

          Buddy, if the government ever becomes a rogue totalitarian state, an unlikely every, an AR-15 won't do squat against the US Marines, their superior fire-power, tanks, helicopters, drones, barrel bombs, flame throwers & rocket launchers.
