Cuomo: Shut Down The Government Over Gun Control…
If the Government shuts down, the country will come to a blinding halt and Congressional staffers will starve.
Via The Hill:
Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D-N.Y.) on Friday said Democratic lawmakers should shut down the federal government until Congress passes stricter gun control laws.
“I’d love to see the Democrats stand up and say, ‘We’re going to shut down the federal government or threaten to shut down the government if we don’t get real gun control legislation,’ ” he told NY1 News.
“It should be that high a priority. It is really sad and tragic and discouraging,” Cuomo said.
“It is such a failure of our political system and frankly such a blatant failure of the elected officials of this country,” he added.
Cuomo said the 2016 presidential field should make resolving gun violence a major part of their campaigns.
“I would like to see Hillary and the vice president and whoever else is in the race from both parties talk about the issue of guns,” he said.
“Rather than the political blather that is now going on, let’s put some real issues on the agenda and let’s put at the top: What are you doing to about guns?” Cuomo asked. “Let’s have that be one of the top priorities.”
