Rep. Jim Clyburn
Feb. 28, 2021
Tweet - "It's been 2 years since the House passed my bill to fix the #CharlestonLoophole. In 2015, a shooter took 9 innocent lives b/c he obtained a gun despite having an incomplete background check--which he would have failed. It's time to finally enact common sense gun legislation."
Rep. Jim Clyburn
Feb. 27, 2021
