Politician
July 11, 2022
Tweet - "Today, the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act was celebrated at the White House. I'm proud I helped this important legislation get signed into law, including provisions I secured to fund student mental health. There's still more to do to reduce gun violence in our communities."
Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto
July 10, 2022
Tweet - "Joined @FoxNewsSunday this morning to discuss the Highland Park shooting and gun safety reform. The bottom line is this: there are millions of military-style assault weapons in America. The gun lobby has made a lot of money as a result. But it has not made us safer."
Sen. Dick Durbin
July 8, 2022
Tweet - "In 2020-21, >1M NICS background checks were incomplete after 3 business days; then guns could be legally sold. It's how the Emanuel AME shooter got a gun. My bill to close this loophole passed the House. The Senate must send it to the President's desk."
Rep. Jim Clyburn
July 7, 2022
Tweet - "Gun violence has a deadly hold on our nation. The Gun Violence Archive has counted over 300 mass shootings this year--including the horrifying tragedy in Highland Park. I recently spoke with @RepLucyMcBath about the fight to end this epidemic."
Rep. Jim Clyburn
July 7, 2022
Tweet - "Maryland deserves gun safety measures that will save lives. I joined my colleagues in responding to the suspension of Maryland's "Good and Substantial Reason' standard for concealed carry permits."
Rep. Steny Hoyer
July 7, 2022
Tweet - "Just stop selling--and making money off of--assault weapons. Full stop. The killer in Highland Park had a lot of guns. He brought the one that would kill the most people."
Sen. Amy Klobuchar
July 6, 2022
Tweet - "After another holiday marred by gun violence, I'm thinking about the values of the Fourth of July and how I'm protecting them in the Senate. I believe in freedom from fear in public spaces. Freedom to choose. Freedom to love. I will continue to fight for these freedoms and more."
Sen. Mark Warner
July 6, 2022
Tweet - "Military-style assault weapons have no place on the streets of America. And neither do the high-capacity magazines that enable these weapons to slaughter as many children in their classroom, grandmothers in the grocery store, and families at a parade as possible."
Sen. Dick Durbin
July 6, 2022
Tweet - "Americans can no longer go to parades, school, or the grocery store without fear of being shot. For too long, the gun lobby has been allowed to glorify, advertise, and sell weapons of war to civilians. These weapons are killing our kids and devastating our communities."
Sen. Dick Durbin
July 5, 2022
