Ryan: ‘All options’ available for punishing Dems for sit
The deaths of two black men at the hands of police officers, and the murder of five police officers in Dallas, Texas, have brought renewed attention to a national debate over gun policy.
“If their answer is ‘nothing, never, ‘ then we’ll take our case to the American people” in the election, Himes said. I know to be a cops wife or a cops husband is to prepare for the worst.
“There will be a temptation to let our danger harden our divisions”, he said Friday. “Let’s not let that happen”, Ryan said on Friday, in remarks addressing the tragedy in Dallas. But these suggestions should be sent To avoid distracting other readers, we won’t publish comments that suggest a correction. “Let’s not let that happen”, he said. They do not control us. “The blame lies with the people who committed these vicious acts and no one else”. We’ve seen terrible, terrible, senseless. “Every member of this body wants a world in which people feel safe regardless of the color of their skin”. Meanwhile, the conservative House Freedom Caucus criticized the legislation for “failing to do enough toaddress the threat of radical Islamic terrorism” and including “gun control provisions that fail to adequately protect due process”. “We’re going to get it right”.
If Americans wish to preserve a constitutional republic, we can not allow ideological mobs of theatrical, left-wing politicians to strip Americans of their Fifth Amendment right to due process in order to strip them of their Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms. “Right now, let’s let justice be done and lets’ also let some healing occur too”.
“It’s clear that this Congress won’t budge on much needed gun safety legislation”, said Leah Gunn Barrett, executive director of New Yorkers Against Gun Violence.
Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., led a filibuster on the Senate floor that lasted almost 15 hours before Republicans agreed to a series of votes on both Democratic and Republican measures.
Efforts by CT lawmakers and Democratic allies to bring gun-related measures to the House floor hit a roadblock when House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., pulled back on a proposed vote in the face of opposition from the ultra-conservative wing of his own party.
McCarthy emphasized, “I’m not pre-determining what it is, I just think what has gone on in the nation this week – this is a time, not only to pause for the prayers, but it’s a time this country should unite and solve the problems out there, make sure justice is done and so that’s in the mode of what we are doing at this moment”.
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-California, followed Ryan on the House floor, thanking the families of those police officers that gave their lives Thursday night.
“For the time being, the most extreme faction of the Republican majority is able to thwart the overwhelming desire of the American people for reasonable gun safety legislation”, Yarmuth said.
