Long. Morning joe starts right now. I have opposed efforts to ban Deadly Weapons of war like the Assault Rifle used to carry out this crime. The time has now come for me to take responsibility for this failure. Which is why i now call on the United States congress to ban Assault Rifles like the one used by the sick perpetrator of this mass killing in my hometown of lewiston, maine. For the good of my community, i will work with any colleague to get this done in the time that i have left in congress. Thats democratic Congressman Jared Golden of maine, changing his position on gun reform following wednesdays deadly Mass Shootings in his hometown.
