Schumer Asks Trump To Push For ‘Responsible’ New Gun Law After Las Vegas

Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer urged President Donald Trump on Tuesday to bring together both major parties to devise a solution to gun violence after this week’s attack in Las Vegas in which 59 people were killed and more than 500 injured.

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward.

Now more than ever, American Jews need independent news they can trust, with reporting driven by truth, not ideology. We serve you, not any ideological agenda.

At a time when other newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall and invested additional resources to report on the ground from Israel and around the U.S. on the impact of the war, rising antisemitism and polarized discourse.

This is a great time to support independent Jewish journalism you rely on. Make a Passover gift today!
