"It wasn't mental health that killed these people, it was an automatic rifle with bullets... I'm a former police officer, a former Army officer. These M4s, AR-15s, they've got to get off the streets or this is going to keep happening" - Allen, TX mall shooting witness Steven Spainhouer tells @CapehartJ on @weekendcapehart

As a third grade teacher, this horrifies me. Congress, do something NOW! #ItsTheGuns

[Shannon Watts @shannonrwatts]

Instead of passing strong gun laws, Texas lawmakers want to train 3rd-graders to use tourniquets, specifically citing the need for children to help treat shooting victims.

We don’t have to live like this. Our children sure as hell shouldn’t die like this. https://t.co/gCOENjtzx8

This Mother’s Day, we don’t want cards. We don’t want flowers.
We want Congress to take action to reinstate the assault weapons ban,which has been proven to save lives. #BanAssaultWeapons
It worked before. It will help #endgunviolence

Tomorrow is AAPI Heritage Month, so this is your annual reminder that the continent of Asia includes South Asia and the Middle East! If your book roundups only include East Asian countries, then you're doing it wrong. Here's a map to help ⬇️

[Katie Porter @katieporterca]

Congress is full of millionaires for the same reason the NBA is full of tall people: it's easier to get there.

If we want a Congress that actually tackles what's on everyday Americans' minds, then we need to make it easier for candidates of all backgrounds to run for office.

[Amy Brown @Amybrownca]

Read this book, people! 😃😃

[Katie Porter @katieporterca]

Wow! #ISwearBook is officially a New York Times Best Seller. I'm grateful to everyone who's read about what serving in Congress is really like (especially as the only single mom of young kids!)—and why politics is messier than my minivan.
