                        DEATHS FROM GUN VIOLENCE

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. ROBIN L. KELLY

                              of illinois

                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, August 21, 2018

  Ms. KELLY of Illinois. Mr. Speaker, I rise today because Americans 
continue to die from gun violence.
  They die on our streets, in their homes, in elementary schools and 
grocery stores.
  Yet, despite the shocking statistics, this Republican-controlled 
Congress does nothing.
  The Speaker offers ``thoughts and prayers'' on social media and then 
jets off for summer vacation or a fundraiser.
  Meanwhile, kids continue to die. Families continue to be torn apart 
and my GOP colleagues gleefully cash their NRA checks.
  Money has poisoned our politics with deadly results. This Congress--
controlled entirely by Republicans--continues to ignore the carnage 
taking place in our streets.
  It seems the zeros on the NRA checks have become blinders to reality.
  Mr. Speaker, I include in the Record the names of 191 New York 
residents, including an infant and numerous teenagers, who this House--
controlled by you and Republicans--have failed by your continued 
inaction on gun violence.
