JUST IN: Gun violence terrorism survivor Gabby Giffords:

President Trump and Majority Leader McConnell "must call the Senate back from August recess immediately. We cannot afford to wait another day for lawmakers to address this horrific national public safety threat."
Giffords: “It’s been 158 days since the US House of Representatives passed the Bipartisan Background Checks Act. How many more lives will be lost before Majority Leader McConnell and President Trump take the next steps to sign that lifesaving legislation into law?”
Sen. Sanders: "Mitch McConnell should bring the Senate back into session immediately to pass HR 8, the gun safety bill that has already passed the House. That's a first step to addressing our serious gun violence epidemic."
“If we have anything to pass along, we will," a spokesperson for Senate Majority Leader McConnell says when asked about calls for the Senate to return to session to address mass gun violence across the US.
BREAKING: After El Paso and Dayton shooting attacks, Minority Leader Schumer says Majority Leader McConnell "must call the Senate back for an emergency session to put the House-passed universal background checks legislation on the Senate floor for debate and a vote immediately."
