Just days after the tragic Robb Elementary School mass shooting in Uvalde, Texas that left 19 students and 2 teachers dead, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer on Wednesday blocked a Republican school safety bill.
Sen. Ron Johnson asked for the Luke and Alex School Safety Act to be passed by unanimous consent, Fox News.
The bill, named after Parkland, Florida shooting victims Luke Hoyer and Alex Schachter, would require the DHS to establish a "Federal Clearinghouse on School Safety Best Practices" for use by state and local educational and law-enforcement agencies, institutions of higher education, health professionals and the public.
Schumer objected to Johnson's request, claiming on Twitter that the bill "Could see more guns in schools."
GOP Sen. Johnson just tried for a bill that could see more guns in schools-I blocked it.
Schumer said on the Senate floor that the legislation could be considered if Republicans agree to debate on the domestic terrorism bill.
The truth: Schumer blocked a bipartisan bill the makes the school safety clearinghouse https://t.co/rvfUl0d7sA permanent because radical left wing activists oppose it https://t.co/V0Lx9GwRx4
