    Default Mitch McConnell Urges GOP to Work with Democrats on Gun Control Legislation

    So, will Uvalde be what propels these idiots to suddenly think that a gun is the issue and not psychos themselves - or failures by police and more that know/knew of bad apples?

    Mitch McConnell Urges GOP to Work with Democrats on Gun Control Legislation

    Senate Minority Leader Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) on Thursday “encouraged” Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) to work with Senate Democrats on gun control legislation in a reaction to the school shooting in Uvalde, Texas this week.

    McConnell specifically requested Cornyn to work with Sens. Chris Murphy (D-CT) and Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) to “find a consensus on some legislation to respond to the shooting in Texas,” CNN reported.

    “I’ve encouraged him to talk to Sen. Sinema, Sen. Murphy and others who are interested in trying to get an outcome that’s directly related to the problem,” McConnell said of Tuesday’s mass school shooting. “I am hopeful that we could come up with a bipartisan solution that’s directly related to the facts of this awful massacre.”

    Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) told his Democrat colleagues on Wednesday he will push off a gun control vote until he believes there are enough votes to overcome the Senate’s 60 vote threshold.

    What is needed is term limits.
    They have that on the highest office in the land, the Presidency set at two terms in office.
    They need that on the Congress critters too!!!
    No more than three terms in office, for House And Senate CRITTERS... --Tyr

    What's wrong with this statement?

    “I’ve encouraged him to talk to Sen. Sinema, Sen. Murphy and others who are interested in trying to get an outcome that’s directly related to the problem,” McConnell said of Tuesday’s mass school shooting. “I am hopeful that we could come up with a bipartisan solution that’s directly related to the facts of this awful massacre.
