I thank Congresswoman Demings for those remarks, and I thank her for reminding us of the law enforcement officers who have lost their lives protecting us. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentlewoman from Connecticut (Ms. Esty), from the town of Newtown. Congresswoman Esty is a tireless advocate for commonsense legislation that will save American lives. She knows all too well the cost that gun violence takes on our communities and on our families. Like many who serve in this House, she is someone who has attended funerals, comforted, and continues to comfort so many grieving mothers and fathers because of gun violence.
