closing these gun show loopholes. you have to go on universal background checks, which includes that. you have to do something about the boyfriend loophole, magazines, bump stocks. there are so many different things that you could do that would not hurt my uncle dick in his deer stand. i come from a hunting state so i can speak with some credibility on this. 2020 democratic presidential aspira aspirant, thank you so much for coming here and talking policy. a split within the gop, senator lindsey graham supporting a controversial idea from president trump after opposing it not too long ago and he s far from alone. stay with us. -we bought a house in a neighborhood with a lot of other young couples. then we noticed something.strange. oh, could you, uh, make me a burger?
around, though. and it s somewhat confusing. do you think there s one clear bill that people could get together on and get behind? because there s a lot out there. there are a lot. i ll tell you the top two that i think would very much appeal to the president, are common sense, and could make a meaningful difference right away. one is background checks on every single gun sale. closing that gun show loophole. every single gun that s sold has to go through a background check. you ve got a ton of bipartisan support on that. it would pass. it would pass the house if called up today. if they hadn t cancelled votes, because i think they re afraid of these kids. the other one actually has to do with these extreme risk orders. what the president has referred to as the red flags. the eros. exactly. gvros, the gun violence restraining orders. that would give law enforcement the authority, the power to take guns away from people like the shooter in florida. in florida, they had no authorit

to vote in politicians who the tweet out thoughts and prayers. and thrn take hush money donations from the nra. i m going to tell you three thi things. close the loopholes in the brady law. make sure that they are closed. tell congress to pass the bill that will close those loopholes. number two, enact extreme risk orders to ensure at risk individuals have guns removed from them before they can cause harm to themselves or others. number three, pass an assault weapons ban.
on individuals and families and to the federal government. and that s such a flaw that we don t have the impact of what the risk orders would do. so that is something that to me, we can t go forward without. can i praise the house bill? it does begin to remove power from washington back to states. and that is part of cassidy collins. to think that louisiana and maine and california and alaska could thrive under the same set of rules. that again was the could not seat of obamacare. the fact the house bill begins to move back to states. i guess i don t understand about the state differential. are pre-existing conditions the same way you live in alaska or louisiana or maine. i was going to say to add to what bill said, one huge difference is while we move power back to the states, give states a lot of freedom to
