A new job for the Benghazi committee

Since the Speaker to be  Kevin McCarthy confessed that the committee's best work has been hitting Hillary's poll numbers it's time for them to look at a real problem. The soft spoken grandmother from Sodom on the San Andreas has an idea.





Washington, D.C. – Today, Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi sent a letter to Speaker John Boehner calling for the creation of a Select Committee on Gun Violence to confront the crisis of gun violence in America and recommend common sense legislation to help end it.  In addition, Leader Pelosi urged Congressional passage of the bipartisan King-Thompson bill to strengthen background checks that save American lives.
As Leader Pelosi wrote, “The epidemic of gun violence in our country challenges the conscience of our nation.  Mass shootings and gun violence are inflicting daily tragedy on communities across America.  As of today, nearly 10,000 Americans have been killed by guns in 2015 – more than 30 gun violence deaths a day.  Yesterday’s terrible attack at Umpqua Community College in Oregon marked the 45th school shooting this year alone.
