Criminal background checks, Commonsense and the Senate
“I don’t consider criminal background checks to be gun control, I consider them to be common sense.”
These are the words of Senator Pat Tommey before the Senate decided not to require background checks at gun shows.
It has been almost month now since most Republican Senators and some Democrats opposed this commonsense measure despite overwhelming public support and I’m glad to see that Mayors Against Illegal Guns is running ads to remind voters about this.
