The US passed a
landmark gun deal one
year ago. Is it working?
…the most significant gun safety package in three decades.
"One year ago we did come together. We did hear the call from too many families... 'Do something, do something,'" Biden said in his speech. "The response usually was, 'My prayers are with you.' Prayers are fine… but it is not going to stop it. You have to take action, you have to move, you have to do something."
"We did pass the most meaningful gun safety law in 30 years," Biden said.
Biden called for Congress and states to pass even more gun safety legislation: "We are not finished."
The event comes as available data suggests the U.S. is seeing a year-over-year decline in murders nationwide. At the same time, mass shootings appear to be accelerating. ["We are not finished."]
