    Today, 25 Senators joined me in asking for immediate action on my bill to fund gun violence research at the @CDCgov. Gun violence is the least-researched cause of death in relation to mortality rates. This should be deeply concerning to all who care about preventing gun violence.pic.twitter.com/WKevCqPAb6

        Mr. Senator, with all due respect, those funds to Research Gun Violence would be the definition of wasteful Government spending. The Research has been DONE ✅ Look at the PROOF of other Countries as your Research ITS BEEN DONE #GunReformNow

        Actually, as a doc and a violence prevention researcher, **this is important**. We desperately need research (not just laws) to help us keep patients safe. It's thru research that we have decreased deaths from car crashes, pools, etc etc...https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4729430/ …

        He is trying to slow down momentum and do an end run around the will of We The People with this research bs! 20 babies ambushed in a classroom is all the info we should need.

        Ed Markey, spending our money on a bill to research gun violence? Are you kidding me? How much did NRA pay you to pull this crap?

        I don't mean to "well actually" you, but the NRA are actually the ones who put the law into place that doesn't allow the CDC to research gun violence. This is actually a step away from the NRA.

        Research the power the NRA has over our US politicians and how the hell you ALL allowed it to happen? The American people deserve to know why escalating gun violence is slaughtering people because of NRA/political greed and profit. 😡
