Biden Urges Congress To Act To Ban Assault Weapons After Kansas City Shooting
President Joe Biden has asked the country to stand with him to make their voice heard in Congress to pass legislation to ban assault weapons.
"It is time to act. That's where I stand. And I ask the country to stand with me. To make your voice heard in Congress so we finally act to ban assault weapons, to limit high-capacity magazines, strengthen background checks, keep guns out of the hands of those who have no business owning them or handling them," he said in a statement issued after one person was killed and 21 others injured in indiscriminate shooting at Super Bowl parade in Kansas City Wednesday.
Many of them are critically injured, according to reports.
