      In 2005, the @NRA successfully lobbied for the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act. It shields gun manufacturers from being sued by victims of their wrongdoing. Congress has done more to protect gun manufacturers from lawsuits than to protect children from mass shootings.

      We should immediately repeal the PLCAA so we can hold the gun industry accountable for their wrongdoing and provide justice for their victims. #GunReformNow

          They are also exempt from the 1972 Consumer Products Safety Act. Unlike cribs to cars to airplanes, gun manufacturers are exempt and are allowed to produce guns with no manual safeties. See this thread on common sense actions we can take now.https://twitter.com/bryandawsonusa/status/963913219613085696 …

          Bryan Dawson added,

          ‪8/ Think of the many products, from cars to cribs, that used tragedies to improve safety through better design. Gun manufacturers were exempted from the 1972 Consumer Product Safety Act and lawsuits are usually futile.‬

          This ignorant democrat wants to punish the manufacturers of arms rather than the person who aggressed against someone. The wrongdoing was done by the criminal. Why do you guys try to make more victims by punishing the crimal + extras?https://mobile.twitter.com/SenMarkey/status/966017408807919623 …

          and healthcare since they don't have healthcare after getting shot. They've premeditated the rights of companies over citizens.
