"It has almost no chance of becoming law as it will come down to the evenly split Senate, where the Democrats have only 50 votes out of 100 needed for passage."

@mandyhstanton @NJD1112 @AndrewDigwood1 @paraicodonnell @kateejamieson Having recently re-re-finished the series (@foliosociety editions, every one of them a visual and tactile delight, with gorgeous @neiljgower maps and cover illustrations) I can only say part of the joy is knowing you can start all over again...

The NRA tried to bully the House out of reauthorizing #VAWA.
They tried to kill essential protections for domestic partners, native and transgender women.

I’m a proud cosponsor. I’ll choose public safety over the NRA lobby any day.
You know, instead of training children, teachers, houses of faith, & concertgoers to prep for being shot, we could just:
-Pass Universal Background checks (#HR8!)
-Disarm domestic abusers
-Mandate safe storage
-Ban bump stocks, semiautos, & high cap mags designed to kill people
