gun control, can they use this kind of response against them in november at midterm? >> well, i think what you saw, reverend al, those who appeared gave a message that was despicable. it was insulting to america. look, the american people know that we take on tough challenges. and they don't back away from them. they don't say well, i can't, because i answered to a gun lobby. what the american people expect us to do right now is show some basic courage and integrity, some character, that is part of being a public official, and that means saying no to the gun lobby and taking even the first steps, and you know this, because he has studied the procedure, all we're asking republicans it do on a background check bill, or a red flag bill, or any other bill that might come before us, is just to vote once to debate it. it is really just a vote to debate. and then we have to get the final passage. but i think we got a lot of republican power so far.

excuses pile up. i think chuck schumer and the senate should bring up the background check bill. the two tangible things that could respond to the shooting in buffalo and the shooting in uvalde that i think they should bring up are the two changes that republicans in florida made after the parkland shooting. rick scott, who is in the senate right now, was governor of florida. he signed a law that would put in these red flag laws, which are kind of these restraining orders for people who are a danger to themselves or others. family members or police could go to the courts to get weapons removed from them. the second one is when garrett haake was talking to the congressman about changing the age from 18 to 21. it is insane you can buy two assault rifles online in texas, but you can't buy a glass of wine at dinner. nobody could be more that in a

>> jim as, as you know, i first ro wrote the background check bill after sandy hook and i did that in conjunction with a group of republican members in the house. i heard all the stories about how hard it is. i heard from some democratic members how hard it is. this has been made such a partisan issue that it is hard for a lot of folks, but, you know, we're beyond what is hard for us. if it is too hard for members of congress to do their job, to help make our kids and our communities safer, get another job. this is far more important than our political careers. any one of us. we need to come together, we need to find out what it is that we can do that will help prevent gun violence prevention and we need to enact it and we need to enact it quickly. >> congressman mike thompson,
