Cassidy Hutchinson needs Federal protection. Now.

@KayeSteinsapir @JoJoFromJerz Dang - missed y’all by one day. Turn the big 50 tomorrow. Or rather in hours

[justagirlfrom @txkytn]

@ElieNYC That is plain awesome! Congrats! And Happy Father’s Day!

Hearing is back on and Barr is pointing out the most OBVIOUS POINT... that Trump got beat by OTHER REPUBLICANS down ballot.

The idea that Dems would steal the presidential election but not the down ballot races IS SO STUPID.

@ElieNYC This is when public transportation & trains like Europe would be nice

@ElieNYC Thank you for the recap. Returning from taking a trip with the middle schooler & his fellow student overseas. It was a nice break from all the news.

[justagirlfrom @txkytn]

Sadly 100% true.

@Nelba_MG Hey look - you are almost all the same height 😊💜 such a great pic!

[justagirlfrom @txkytn]

@RexChapman Yes they do. My children have only known this in school. Terrifying.

[justagirlfrom @txkytn]

@IvePetThatDog Wow - what great pictures of two great subjects!!! Bravo!

[justagirlfrom @txkytn]

@ConnieSchultz Horrifying. Yet I know they are touching/comforting her in the ways they can. Micropreemies do not like to be stroked which is often how we comfort. They like a firm constant touch on their head & feet. This was how we comforted our daughter born at 25 weeks. Praying for peace.

We must pass commonsense, data-driven legislation to save lives — background checks, Extreme Risk Protection Orders, and magazine capacity limits.

As a mother, my heart aches for the families whose babies did not come home last night.

For the parents who received the worst news they will ever hear. For the parents who had to identify the mutilated body of their child.

Our kids deserve better and that means real action.

The federal purchasing age for handguns is 21.

The federal purchasing age for assault rifles is 18.

Both the Uvalde and Buffalo shooters bought their assault weapons at 18.

Raising this age is a first step to protecting lives and establishing parity in federal firearms law.

The sad reality is that requiring would-be mass murderers to reload saves lives — permitting people escape time and law enforcement response time.

This is why I support legislation to limit magazine capacity. (3/3)

[Archive: Rep. Abigail Spanberger @RepSpanberger]

That provision was part of the 1994 Federal Assault Weapons Ban, which expired in 2004.

Large capacity magazines equate to more fatalities when a would-be shooter can fire shot after shot.

Research confirms that limiting magazine capacity saves lives. (2/3)

[Archive: Rep. Abigail Spanberger @RepSpanberger]

When I began as a federal agent, I carried a gun and two extra magazines every day.

My mags were marked “for law enforcement use only” because they held more than 10 rounds. At that time, federal law limited magazine capacity to 10 rounds outside of law enforcement use. (1/3)
