The Supreme Court isn’t pro-life — yesterday, it struck down a New York State law limiting who can carry concealed handguns in public, a ruling that could invalidate most gun control laws throughout the country. The court doesn’t care about mass death. https://t.co/U0185Z5Uig

I knew that he had guns. He kept one of them in the cabinet in the kitchen & another in between our pillows when we slept at night.
I never believed he would actually fire at me. Until he did.—🧵 https://t.co/frfX97akij

#BREAKING: We just passed the first major gun safety package in nearly 30 years.
— Rep. Shontel Brown (@RepShontelBrown) June 24, 2022
This is a good bill—not a perfect bill.
I believe there is much more we can do reduce gun violence.
But let me be clear: this bill will ensure a safer future for our children and our communities.
