Political Quotes

“Last school year was a deadly year for so many of our children going to school in America. School shootings shocked the very core of Americans and communities across the country. As we approach the beginning of school, this Congress has passed no gun safety legislation, no universal background check, no banning of assault weapons, no holding parents responsible for children getting guns. Although I understand that there are many discussions about school security, the proliferation of guns is one of the issues that contributes to the dangers that our children face. We know that the Second Amendment guarantees the right to bear arms, but there is nothing in the Second Amendment that does not allow us to have sensible gun safety legislation. It is time for us to recognize that a Nation that has more guns than citizens can stand down in order to provide a safe educational climate for our children. Are they not our most precious resource? It is time to act now. ____________________”
