But despite polls showing the majority of the American Public supporting tougher gun control, theres been no action from washington. Abcs Karen Travers looks at why. Reporter after the tragedy at sandy hook elementary, president obama seemed to channel the conscious of a stunned nation. These tragedies must end. And to end them, we must change. Reporter Mass Shootings in the past sparked outrage and sadness, not change. But the horror of 20 School Children murdered in cold blood seemed to be a tipping point. Yet one year later, there are no new federal gun laws and no plans for any on the horizon. One of the more frustrating items thats come across the plate is how completely disconnected our legislative system seems to be from the opinion of the american people. Reporter in january, president obama proposed a game plan and urged congress to take quick action. An abc News Washington post poll at the time found a majority of americans supported those measures. The lobbying efforts began immediately. Families of the newtown victims became a familiar sight on capitol hill. The gun industry, led by the powerful nra, countered with an equally intense effort, focusing on democrats from conservative states who were up for reelection in 2014. Finally in april, a bipartisan deal on a scaled back measure to extend background checks, but in the democratcontrolled senate, the bill fell short of the 60 votes needed for passage. The amendment is not agreed to. Reporter theres little appetite on capitol hill to refight this contentious issue, but victims advocates say there are still areas that could be addressed. Mental health and community are critical causes that can prevent gun violence if they are addressed appropriately. Reporter Karen Travers, abc news, washington.
