Rep. Tlaib Spends 5 Minutes Talking Guns and Mass Shootings at a Hearing About the Secret Service’s Failures

EXCERPT:

TLAIB: "Thank you so much, Mr. Chair. Thank you, director, for being here. You know, we hear the headline a 20-year-old young man with access to an assault weapon commits a mass — you know, act of mass violence. I mean, we’ve heard this before, over and over again. The unfortunate thing is, my residents don’t get a committee hearing. We have not had one committee hearing about the over 260 mass shootings that we’ve had, killing hundreds of people, injuring hundreds — changing their lives forever. And don’t get me wrong. To many of my colleagues, I mean, I watched, and even the pool of blood, the screams, it was horrific, but it made me think about the images I saw after mass shootings at schools, grocery stores.”
