The anti-gun-violence movement was essentially asleep from 1994 to 2012, and during that time, the gun lobby built up enormous political power.

I wake up ready to right and I feel like I'm on the right side of history every day.

My career in Congress is a story of before Sandy Hook and after Sandy Hook.

There are all sorts of shades of gray when you're working on economic policy and tax policy and health care policy. There's no gray on this issue, to me. This is a gun lobby that is raging out of control, that doesn't even represent its own members.

I will consider my time in the Senate a failure if we don't pass some meaningful legislation to reduce the likelihood that Sandy Hook ever happens again.

It would be devastating for America if Donald Trump won, and it would be devastating for the anti-gun-violence movement. But we would be on a long list of progressive causes that would be shattered by a Trump win.

Donald Trump has a lot of supporters with a deep hatred of Hillary Clinton and access to incredibly powerful lethal weapons.
