“Tom Malinowski is committed to the common sense gun violence prevention measures that a majority of Americans support. Comprehensive universal background checks, age minimums for purchasing firearms, and reinstating the federal Assault Weapons Ban” said Colston Reid, Malinowski’s Campaign Manager. “Leonard Lance has opposed these steps at every turn. How many more children have to go to school afraid before we have a Congress willing to step up and demand action?”
