The legislation, called the "Assault Weapons Ban of 2018," was introduced less than two weeks after the mass shooting at a Parkland, Fla., high school that left 17 people dead. The gunman used an AR-15 assault rifle during the shooting, one of the many firearms that would be banned under the bill.
The legislation would make it "unlawful for a person to import, sell, manufacture, transfer, or possess, in or affecting interstate or foreign commerce, a semiautomatic assault weapon."
Say thank you to the Democrats!

My thought exactly. Many Dems also receive NRA money!
If the kids can pull off a meaningful Spring Break boycott in Florida then politicians will begin to wobble.
