Nov. 19, 2019 Letter to the Hon. Mitch McConnell, Majority Leader of the United States Senate - 130+ Democratic House Members Urge Senate Action on House-Passes Bills in Wake of Deadly Shootings Rep. Chuy Garcia, ...
Nov. 18, 2019 Tweet - "Gun violence is taking lives across this country every day. When will Senate Republicans finally say #EnoughIsEnough? It's long past time for Leader McConnell to hold a Senate vote on the House-passed bipartisan background checks bill." Sen. Dick Durbin
Nov. 14, 2019 Tweet - "Devastating reports of yet another school shooting. Thoughts and prayers are not enough. Senate Dems *today* asked that the Senate take up the bipartisan background checks bill that the House passed in February. Senate Rs objected, saying the bill "should not be fast tracked."" Sen. Dick Durbin
Nov. 14, 2019 Tweet - "Remember--back in August, after the tragic mass shootings in El Paso, Dayton, & Odessa, Pres. Trump & the GOP promised to work with Democrats to address gun violence. But nothing has happened since. No plans presented, no compromises delivered. A tragic failure in leadership." Sen. Dick Durbin
Nov. 14, 2019 Tweet - "My heart goes out to the victims and those traumatized by shootings like the Santa Clarita school shooting today. Sadly, tragedies like this can--and should--be prevented. We must come together as a nation to address the gun violence crisis. There's no other way." Sen. Dick Durbin
Nov. 13, 2019 Tweet - "Straw purchases are driving gun violence in Chicago. I have a bipartisan bill to crack down on straw purchases--the Stop Illegal Trafficking in Firearms Act--but it's stuck in Sen. Mitch McConnell's legislative graveyard. The Senate should take up & vote on this bill without delay." Sen. Dick Durbin

Nov. 1, 2019 Tweet - "Remember when President Trump promised to address gun violence in August? Whatever happened to that? The President should spend his time working on solutions, not trashing Chicago." Sen. Dick Durbin
Oct. 28, 2019 Tweet - "What kind of a U.S. President praises Russia and bashes Chicago? Pres. Trump displayed a stunning dearth of dignity in Chicago today. Rather than focusing on positive solutions, he chose to insult a great American city." Sen. Dick Durbin

Oct. 21, 2019 Tweet - "40 people were shot in Chicago this weekend, and Washington barely seems to notice. It's unacceptable that reducing gun violence seems to have fallen off the Senate's agenda.

Oct. 1, 2019 Tweet - "Only in America do we mourn the victims of multiple mass shootings on the same day. Today, we remember Umpqua C.C. and Las Vegas.
