Republicans in Congress & the White House, led by @realDonaldTrump, have held fast to the belief that better laws won’t curb the epidemic of gun violence in this country. That they’re now reversing that belief & exploring policy changes to curb gun violence is a welcome shift. 1/

Rather than just draft memos,
@realDonaldTrump should call on Congress to pass@SenFeinstein’s bill to ban bump stocks. On far too many issues, this administration has been all talk & little action – we can’t afford that approach when it comes to curbing#gunviolence. 3/Show this thread -
2nd, the Fix NICS bill
@POTUS has tentatively endorsed barely scratches the surface of our problem & must be just the start of a legislative remedy that at a minimum fully strengthens & funds#backgroundchecks, closes loopholes, & keeps guns from ppl who shouldn’t have them. 4/Show this thread -

@HouseGOP combined the Fix NICS bill w/ the NRA’s top priority, concealed carry reciprocity, creating a bill which would be even worse than the status quo. I strongly urge@SenateGOP to avoid making the same mistake & instead work w/ Dems to pass real#gunsafety solutions. 5/5Show this thread

Do what are sensible limits? These assault style guns are mostly toys. You can’t safely walk around town with them. Folks buy them for fun. They may say Ttr want to defend their family but really if they need that perhaps they need a better neigbohood.

Common sense needs to supercede antiquated interpretation of laws written when an assault rifle was a muzzle loaded musket. Imagine If suddenly laser guns were on the market that had no limit in range so to fire it could literally reach through the earth, no one would be safe.

Hey @cryinchuckles should we ban cars and trucks since they kill people too? Guns don’t kill people. People kill people. You should expend your energy on mental health issues instead of guns.

Please tighten up your messaging and get aggressive. For example, every day: why no sanctions? Stop all senate activity until implemented. Do whatever it takes. You know, like McConnel did with your Supreme Court nominee.
