Several new laws loosening gun restrictions in Texas went into effect a day after a mass shooting killed 7 people and injured 22.
The laws:
– allow handguns in places of worship
– let people store guns, ammunition in school parking lots
– allow more armed guards in schools pic.twitter.com/BUAFE6Z8pq— AJ+ (@ajplus) September 2, 2019

As of September 1, which was the 244th day of the year, there have been 283 mass shootings in the U.S.
After each mass shooting, the GOP defends the NRA more than children, families, and victims.

Trump's response to the Odessa mass shooting during a media availability on Sunday was to thank law enforcement and say "it could've been worse." He didn't say a word about the victims or about guns. He quickly moved on to other topics. pic.twitter.com/v1NRJeFZJX

It’s almost as if there’s a correlation between looser gun laws and mass shooting. https://t.co/TBq6jiv9eL

The @HouseJudiciary Committee will vote on multiple #GunViolence prevention bills on September 10th. These policies have broad bipartisan support among the American people, but I doubt Mitch McConnell will hold a vote. #Enough #EndGunViolence pic.twitter.com/cPG1OKqQ0S
