Boyle | B001296 | boyle.house.gov | boyle | https://boyle.house.gov/media-center/press-releases | scraper | WASHINGTON – Congressman Brendan F. Boyle (PA-02) this evening lauded House passage of the Protecting Our Kids Act (H.R. 7910). It is commonsense legislation to address the deadly torrent of gun violence plaguing our country. "Today more people are carrying guns in America, legally and illegally, than ever, and mass shootings are a common occurrence", said Congressman Boyle. "With more than 400 million firearms currently circulating in America, there are more guns than people in our country. The horrors of gun violence we have witnessed in recent weeks are a reflection of that perverse imbalance. With so many guns on the street, Congress must insist on commonsense strategies to reduce gun violence across the country. The Protecting Our Kids Act embodies commonsense proposals that together will reduce the violence Americans have suffered from guns in our communities."
