years. i got involved in this issue from police coming to me. one of the issues they raised for years is fact that there was this gun show loop hole and issues with commercial purchases that didn't allow them to get the information they need to make sure that the people were safe. that's why's been such a strong supporter of the manchin-toomey bill. it's a good base. >> it's the best we've ever done, too. >> i want to make one more case. we appreciate your support for that bill from a different perspective. the states that have the background checks, they have a 38% lower domestic homicide rate, this is domestic violence. for those cases, especially, it makes a major difference. this number for you to keep with you, 6,000 women in ten years were killed by a partner, whether it was a spouse, a boyfriend, 6,000.
