Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) “shut down all talk of legislative remedies to gun violence” after the Las Vegas massacre, mirroring the remarks by Speaker Paul Ryan,” Politico reports.
He declared this is simply not the time to be talking about legislation targeting firearms.
Said McConnell: “The investigation has not even been completed. I think it’s premature to be discussing legislative solutions, if there are any.”
