VP Harris on mall shooting: 'All Americans deserve to be safe from gun violence'
Vice President Kamala Harris released a statement Sunday about the shooting, also urging Congress to act.
"Doug and I mourn for the eight adults and children who lost their lives, pray for those wounded, and send our gratitude to the first responders who ran toward danger," she said in a statement.
"All Americans deserve to be safe from gun violence. But they are not," Harris continued. "Not because we do not know the solutions. Not because the American people are divided on this issue -- even a majority of gun owners support sensible reforms."
Harris urged Congress to send a bill to President Joe Biden that would ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, and would introduce universal background checks.
"We need action," Harris added.
