"THREAD: I hope we can pass meaningful #gunsafety legislation. Yesterday @realDonaldTrump seemed to strongly endorse universal #backgroundchecks, seemed open to an assault weapons ban & agreed with Dems that passing just Fix NICS is not nearly enough -- we need to do a lot more."

".@SenateDems have discussed #gunsafety and today I announced our 3 part plan: https://www.facebook.com/NowThisPolitics/videos/1942100475821433/ …"

"FIRST- Close gun show & internet loopholes and update our background check system to make it comprehensive;"

"SECOND- Allow for protective orders to temporarily disarm individuals who have shown credible signs of being a harm to themselves or to others;"

"And THIRD- Debate banning assault weapons & limiting clips - if @realDonaldTrump can get some Republicans to vote for these proposals, and he indicated openness to supporting them yesterday, we can pass it soon."

"The @NRA has had the GOP in a headlock for decades --but @realDonaldTrump could overcome their strength and finally get his Republican allies on the Hill to move to embrace some commonsense gun safety policies."

"Today, I asked @realDonaldTrump to listen to the cries of this country, follow through on his comments yesterday by endorsing these proposals, and pushing GOP leaders in Congress to once & for all buck the NRA and finally get this done."
