Democrats Finally Rally Around Gun Control

“The Democratic presidential candidates have thrust gun control forward as a dominant issue for the national election, signaling a sea change in the politics of a controversial subject that recent Democratic nominees have often avoided,” the Washington Post reports.

“After years of deadly mass shootings across the country, and with President Obama voicing deep frustration with inaction by Republicans in Congress, the Democratic candidates led by Hillary Clinton vowed in a debate here Tuesday night to toughen restrictions on gun owners and gun manufacturers.”
