Sens. Blumenthal and Graham Introduce Bipartisan Legislation to Combat Gun Violence
Earlier today I joined Sen. Graham to introduce our legislation on federal Extreme Risk Protection Orders - a bipartisan breakthrough, modeled on lifesaving laws in Connecticut and Indiana, that would remove deadly weapons from individuals in crisis.
This is a proven step Congress can take to stem the gun violence ravaging communities of all sizes. Let’s seize the moment and make progress now.

When I look at Graham/Cassidy, I can’t help but think of 7-year-old Conner Curran of Ridgefield, Connecticut. Conner has Duchenne muscular dystrophy, an illness that slowly erodes motor functions. As it progresses, he will lose the ability to run, walk, or hug his parents goodnight. Unless a cure is found, it will one day take his life. But you’d never know it from the courage and strength he b...

Today I testified in support of the Stop Enabling Sex Traffickers Act, which I authored along with my colleague Sen. Portman.

    Congress has been very active in exploring the violent deaths in Benghazi. Let's hope that they will put equal energies and those of their staffs in stopping gun violence in the US. We are always told that the highest duty of government is protecting its citizens. Let's hope that also means first graders and their teachers.

    Not once was the underlying issue of the devaluing of our currency due to money-printing and unsustainable deficits mentioned. however, I wasn't expecting it to be coming from a governor who ran my state into the dirt and a senator who lies about his military service. We have the government we deserve.
