victims of gun violence from every u.s. state and territory. my fellow americans, enough. enough. it s time for each of us to do our part. it s time to act. for the children we ve lost, the children we can save, for the nation we love. let s hear the call and the cry. let s meet the moment. let us finally do something. the president laid down a marker to expected opposition from republican lawmakers. don t tell me raising the age won t make a difference. enough. my god, the fact that the majority of the senate republicans don t want any of these proposals, even to be gate debated or come up with a vote i find unconscionable. let s talk about the specifics of what the president laid out last night. tom foreman is here with that. again, some very specific plans put forth, tom. yeah, a lot of bullet points we can talk about here. i don t mean to make a pun there. the first one to ban assault weapons and high capacity magazines. this was they want to reinstate the 199

good morning. to viewers here in the u.s. and around the world it is tuesday, may 24th. and we begin with a proxy war playing out on primary day, and the fate of the republican party at stake. voters will head to the polls in five states today. but the spotlight is really on georgia, where former president trump s 2020 election grievances loom large. last night former vice president mike pence stumping for incumbent governor brian kemp in an election eve rally. and this race is pitting pence against his former boss who is supporting pence s primary opponent david perdue. kemp has been a top target against trump s vengeance campaigns. trump issued a statement that may be unprecedented when it comes to former running mates. he said, quote, mike pence was set to lose the governor s race in 2016, before he was plucked up and his political career was salvaged. now desperate to chase his lost relevance, pence is parachuting into races hoping someone is paying attention. we re liv
