In the wake of the mass shootings in California, Texas, and Ohio, Mitch McConnell still sits idle with gun reform legislation languishing on his desk.
CNN reports: "At a vigil outside McConnell's office Tuesday night, more than 100 protesters gathered. They chanted 'do your job' and carried signs urging McConnell to 'let Congress vote.'"
More protests are planned for tonight. If you can pressure McConnell in person, do that. If you can't, please donate $3 to help fighter pilot Amy McGrath defeat Mitch McConnell, and to our work taking back the Senate in 2020. Thanks -- The PCCC Team
