                   VICTIMS OF GUN VIOLENCE IN AMERICA

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. ROBIN L. KELLY

                              of illinois

                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, July 26, 2018

  Ms. KELLY of Illinois. Mr. Speaker, I rise today because Americans 
continue to die from gun violence while this Congress does nothing to 
stop it.
  As my colleagues head out the door for their summer vacations, 
thousands of American families will never again experience a vacation 
with a loved ones because of gun violence.
  As my colleagues leave town to enjoy summertime picnics, thousands of 
American families will never again experience a summer with their loved 
ones lost to gun violence.
  As my colleagues enjoy the August recess with their family and 
friends, more Americans will lose family and friends to gun violence 
because this Congress failed to act.
  I include in the Record the names of many Americans that this 
Republican-controlled Congress has failed.

Victims of Gun Violence in America--Americans Failed by a Congress too
