      Democrats have introduced a litany of common-sense and lifesaving proposals to prevent gun violence. But this bloodshed keeps happening because Mitch McConnell and too many of his Republican colleagues refuse to listen to the American people begging and pleading for change.

      We have introduced a bill to ban military style assault weapons and high capacity magazines — a proposal that would have prohibited the weapons used to inflict mass casualties in the El Paso and Dayton shootings.

      We have introduced bills to close loopholes that allow domestic abusers and terrorists to purchase deadly weapons and that allow straw purchasers to flood our streets with guns.

      But how many of these bills has Senator McConnell allowed a vote on? Zero. How many of these bills have we been allowed to debate? None.

      My Republican colleagues cut and paste the words “thoughts and prayers” into a tweet and then do nothing on gun violence. This carnage occurs because of their inaction. And that’s because the NRA has a vise-like grip on the GOP that threatens the safety of this nation.

          C’mon Ed, that’s not fair. Mitch HAS to earn that NRA money now, before Vladimir Putin stops funding and it

          Join the NRA with me and we can protest and get angry.
