[Congressional Record Volume 164, Number 132 (Tuesday, August 7, 2018)] [Extensions of Remarks] [Pages E1135-E1136] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] GUN VIOLENCE ______ HON. ROBIN L. KELLY of illinois in the house of representatives Tuesday, August 7, 2018 Ms. KELLY of Illinois. Mr. Speaker, I rise today because gun violence continues to claim the lives of Americans and it remains unchecked by this Congress. Just this weekend, Chicago--our nation's third largest city--saw 74 people shot, 11 of whom passed away and 63 of whom were injured and will never be the same. Mr. Speaker, what are we doing? Or more correctly, what AREN'T we doing? We should be passing legislation to stop interstate gun trafficking, to prevent stalkers from accessing weapons, to keep suspected terrorists from purchasing weapons and to ensure a background check on every gun sale. Tragically, this Republican-controlled Congress shows no intention to consider any of these commonsense, lifesaving policy changes that we know work and save lives. Mr. Speaker, we--well, more correctly, this Republican-controlled Congress is failing the American people and putting their lives and families at risk. Here are the names of many, many Americans that we've failed . Americans failed by a Congress too beholden the NRA to act: Florida's 25th Congressional District 1. Melani Valencia, 7 2.
