Received this e-mail today from U.S. Senator Bob Casey, Jr.’s (D. PA) re-election campaign:
We have a real opportunity to pass commonsense gun safety measures, and we can't let it pass us by. The Las Vegas shooter was able to use legally purchased "bump stocks" to modify his legal rifles into something resembling automatic weapons. Now I'm co-sponsoring legislation to make sure people with violent intentions don't have a legal route to creating a similar weapon of war.
Click here to tell Congress that banning bump stocks makes good sense and will save innocent lives.
I have been deeply frustrated by Congress' inability to pass reasonable laws to keep deadly weapons out of the wrong hands. This is a real opportunity to get something done. Many of my Republican colleagues have expressed a willingness to consider banning bump stocks, but they need to hear from you.
Banning bump stocks is a good first step toward making our communities safer. Join me and tell Congress that we need to take action, right now:
