NEW: I’m proposing the 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution to help end our nation’s gun violence crisis.
The American people are sick of Congress’ inaction.
The 28th will enshrine 4 widely supported gun safety freedoms -- while leaving the 2nd Amendment intact:
1) Raising the minimum age to purchase a gun to 21
2) Universal background checks
3) A reasonable waiting period for gun purchases
4) Banning the civilian purchase of assault weapons
Weapons of war do not belong on our streets, in our classrooms, or in our communities.
I'm proud to lead the Assault Weapons Ban in the House. We must do everything we can to keep families safe. America deserves that. 🧡

This could be South Carolina very soon if the @SCSenate passes the #PermitlessCarry bill. Text SC to 64433 to call your SC Senator and tell them to vote NO to Permitless Carry bill S.109.
It would be difficult to find literally anything else that Americans agree on this much.
It’s time for Congress to get in line with the American people.
. @scsenategop, please listen to @ColumbiaPDSC
Chief Holbrook's concerns with #PermitlessCarry at the @SCSenate Judicial Subcommittee mtg: "This (bill) puts our law enforcement officers in a position to fail"; and vote NO to S.109/H.3594.
This brave high school freshman testified to @SCSenate subcommittee against #PermitlessCarry:
"Parents get it, but you don't! Teachers get it, but you don't! Students get it, but you don't!"
Text SC to 644-33 to tell your SC Senator to oppose Permitless Carry #SCPol@MomsDemand
Have you called your SC Senator to oppose Permitless Carry H. 3494? They are pushing a bill that would allow carrying handguns in public with NO permit, NO training & NO background check! And would lower age from 21 to 18! Text SC to 64433 to call your Senator! #SCPol@MomsDemand
Thank you @MiaforSC for opposing Permitless Carry H.3594; would allow carry handguns in public w/ NO permit, NO training & NO bkgd check & would lower age to carry handgun in public from 21 to 18!
Text SC to 644-33 to call your Senator: NO to permitless carry! @MomsDemand#SCPol
SIGN: Ticketmaster is an unchecked monopoly that exploits artists, venues and consumers. It's time to break up Ticketmaster, lower ticket prices and fight back against corporate influence. https://t.co/7JcU5bCkWB
Companies are critical in the fight to end gun violence—and right now Facebook (@meta) is failing. Even though Facebook says it prohibits unlicensed gun sales, they let gun buyers and sellers violate that rule 10 TIMES before they are kicked off its platforms. #NoSecondChances
Run on personal freedom.
Run on keeping the government out of your private life.
Run on getting your rights back.
This is where the energy is. This is where the 2022 election will be won.
It feels like a good morning to remind everyone that @NancyMace helped write and VOTED FOR the 6-week abortion ban that is currently the law of the land in South Carolina.
#BirdsTellUs we need to act on climate. Ask your U.S. Senators to vote YES on historic climate legislation. Take action today with the @audubonsociety: https://t.co/GTHwSD8zyR
