Speaker Pelosi: "The hearts of all Americans are with the Boulder community and loved ones of those killed in yesterday’s horrific shooting, including a Boulder police officer. We offer our prayers to all those impacted and our gratitude to the heroic first responders."

Pelosi: "For the second time in a week, our nation is being confronted by the epidemic of gun violence. Too many families in too many places are being forced to endure this unfathomable pain and anguish."

Pelosi:"Action is needed now to prevent this scourge from continuing to ravage our communities. That is why, this month, the House passed HR 8, the Bipartisan Background Checks Act and HR 1446, the Enhanced Background Checks Act, two commonsense gun violence prevention measures."

Pelosi:"While we await further information on details of this heinous crime, we continue to stand w/victims, families & young people across the country saying, ‘Enough is enough.’ Democrats will keep fighting to end the daily tragedy of gun violence & keep our communities safe.”
