“in the extremist world of this Republican Congress, things just get stranger every day. Today's outrage is the Republican concept of rights. What rights do the American people have? Quality, affordable health care for our seniors? That's not a right. Head Start and student loans and immunizations for our children? Those aren't rights. How about job training, a decent minimum wage, and economic security for American workers? No rights there. But owning an Uzi submachinegun that can fire over 100 rounds a minute and is designed to terrorize our communities? Now that is a right. What my Republican friends have really forgotten is a sense of right and wrong. What is absolutely right is for this Congress to take every step possible to protect our families, our children, and our neighborhoods from senseless gun violence. What is absolutely wrong is to care more about a few thousand bucks from the NRA than keeping our kids and communities safe. Today let's vote for our kids instead of for the cash. Vote to protect our families and save the assault weapons ban.”
