On the recordJune 18, 2024
I just want to remind our colleagues that we actually did pass legislation, 2 years ago, to invest in mental health, and we passed a meaningful gun safety piece of legislation. But the assertion that this would ban some enormous number of firearm devices is certainly not rooted in fact. It would, however, ban bump stocks, and it would ban things like Glock switches, which also let semiautomatic firearms act as fully automatic firearms. I think the American people understand what commonsense gun safety looks like, and that is what the BUMP Act is all about. And I will reserve the rest of my time, but this will not be the last time you hear about these devices on the floor of the Senate. I suggest the absence of a quorum. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will call the roll. The legislative clerk proceeded to call the roll. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Nevada.
