Remembering…or More Importanly… Not Forgetting Sandy Hook
Last Sunday night on 60 Minutes, Scott Pelley interviewed the families of Newtown victims. Although the Newtown families have been successful in pushing for comprehensive gun control measures in Connecticut (which were signed into law last Thursday), they face Republican opposition in the Senate. Republican lawmakers, including Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), have vowed to filibuster any gun control bills that are introduced to the Senate. Yesterday, President Obama spoke in Newtown to make what Politico calls a “last gun control push.” The President stated that a gun control filibuster is just “not right.”
