Newtown Action Alliance meets about next steps on gun control

A forum was held Tuesday night by the Newtown Action Alliance about what's next for gun safety.  Among the speakers were Virginia Tech shooting survivor Colin Goddard, a member of the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence and Senator Richard Blumenthal.  He discussed legislation in Washington. 

 

Blumenthal said that it was shameful last month when the Senate failed to advance common sense solutions to reduce gun violence and a low point in his career in public service. 

 

He said he is not discouraged though.  He wants to continue to push for background check legislation, work to close loopholes that allow for gun trafficking and address the difficulties within the mental health system.
