Measure, opposed by every Republican and 9 Democrats, heads to Senate

For nearly two years, a variety of semi-automatic weapons and high-capacity magazines have not been available for sale in Delaware. An upcoming court ruling could reinstate those sales, but state officials argue that would increase the risk to the public.

Republicans voted against an assault weapons ban and have advocated for safety net cuts.

Rep. Tim Burchett said Congress will only ‘mess things up’ if it gets involved, but research shows that gun safety laws reduce gun violence.

Sen. John Thune (R-SD) said he doesn’t want to ban military-grade assault weapons because his constituents use them to shoot prairie dogs.

‘What is likely to happen if gun laws are not followed is people get killed as a result,’ said a senior counsel with the Giffords Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence.

The pollster who conservatives love to cite just shocked them with a poll disproving Trump’s argument against action on gun violence.

The NRA itself says the gun its lobbyist wants little girls to have is actually ‘for adults.’
