During a speech in Pennsylvania, President Joe Biden addressed rising gun violence across America
President Biden addressed gun policy in a passionate speech at the “Safer America” rally, in Wilkes-Barre.
The President says he is “determined to ban assault weapons” in the United States, in a bid to curb violence and senseless shootings.
He used the platform to call out Republicans for failing to support a ban on assault-style weapons, urging voters to “vote against” politicians that stand in the way of reform.
He accused Republicans of withholding their support for change because they’re “afraid of the NRA.”
As a gun owner himself, Biden assured American’s he’s not “taking away anybody’s guns” or rights.
However, Biden says there must be a bill in place to prevent dangerous people from accessing firearms.
The President referenced a grim statistic saying the biggest victims of gun violence are America’s children.
