wwe need to provide opportuny for americans to get to the second and third and fourth wrung. these job numbers relate back to the deficit and debt. there is a study by economist es reinhardt and rogoff that said we would have a million more jobs if not for these numbers. this is the fourth year in a row, never in the history of our country, have we had debts and deficits of $1 trillion. and yet the president's budget, it appears, will not fundamentally change the course we're on. i think from what i've heard from the media reports, we'd add about $7 trillion to our debt over the next ten years. put you arputting our debt at al where it's the entire size of our economy, where we have unfortunately continued economic doldrums because we can't get out of this huge overhang of debts and deficits. it is time to make a change of it is a moment for truth. it is an opportunity to address the challenge. my fear is that the president's budget will not be adequate to meet the challenge. there are some things in the budget that will be positive. i understand that the president is likely

wwe should keep them off the streets. in the 1920's, organized crime was committing murders with machine guns. we've seen them in the movies. "volume entine's day massacre." machine guns basically disappeared from the streets. they are in movies but not private citizens had them. we can and should make the same commonsense approach to safeguard americans from modern weapons of war, assault weapons. that's why i will vote for dianne feinstein's assault weapons ban, because we must strike a better balance between the right to defend ourselves and the right of every child in america to grow up safe from gun violence. i'll vote for the ban because maintaining the law and order is more important than satisfying conspiracy theories who leave in black helicopters and false flags. i'll vote for the ban because saving the lives of police officers, young and old, and innocent civilians, young and old, is more important than preventing imagined tyranny. so high-capacity magazines, clips -- that's what i call th them. my reason for w

wwe can do something about t i have a said over and over again today that there's no guarantees. we're not going to pass a law that's going to immediately flip a switch and assure that gun violence won't continue to be a problem. but it can be less of a problem. it can be less of a reality. it can be less of a reality for kids that are walking to school fearing for their lives in urban america. it can be less of a reality for parents sending their children to elementary school, never thinking that something like what happened in sandy hook can occur. so we can do something about t so i want to come back pen to continue -- come back again to continue talking about the victims, to give them a face here. i was very encouraged to see some movement between both parties coming together on one element of this debate: background checks k hopefully there will be looked at as a very good week in the midst of this debate. and so i want to tell you who we're talking about here. so let me go back to newtown. i think this is my fourth time on the floor today. and i still haven't told you about
