Nearly 2,000 kids died since you blocked gun safety leg-How dare you accuse Congress of inaction?

Must Read Op/Ed by Fred Guttenberg

Trump, McConnell: Nearly 2,000 kids died since you blocked gun safety legislation. How dare you accuse Congress of inaction? | Opinion

............

Reality is that nearly 2,000 kids have died since the Majority Leader of the Senate decided to block gun safety legislation passed by the House Of Representatives. How dare this White House and Leader McConnell accuse Congress of not doing anything, or, in the latter word's, being stuck in a holding pattern?

Leader McConnell, today I visited my daughter's gravesite. Turning the Senate into a graveyard for legislation so that your majority and the White House can stand idly by doing nothing except politicizing the issue is leading to more American families who visit loved ones in real graveyards. Do your job. If you don't, not, this issue will become the defining issue of the next election—and you will be out of one altogether.
