Congresswoman Lee's words remind me of what I hear sometimes: we need to wait before we do anything; this group or that group or someone just died, and we are already talking about what we are going to do. It has been 5 years since Newtown, and we still have done nothing. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentlewoman from Florida (Mrs. Demings). She sees this issue through a number of lenses: a mom, a wife of law enforcement, and a career law enforcement officer herself.
