dayton and other cities have written senate leadership asking them to call senators back to washington to consider a pair of house pass bills that expand background checks. they wrote "these are the latest reminders that our nation can no longer wait for a federal government to take the actions necessary to prevent people who should not have access to firearms from being able to purchase them. senate majority leader mitch mcconnell said he spoke with senate committee leaders asking them to engage in bipartisan discussions on potential solutions without infringing on americas incorporated constitutional rights. the national association has been writing, it's not been enough to simply say we need more background checks. that's rhetoric for billionaire activists and campaign rallies, not a call for constructed progress. those who are judged a danger to themselves or a danger to others should have that right taken
