Carolyn McCarthy readies gun control bill
One of the fiercest gun-control advocates in Congress, Rep. Carolyn McCarthy (D-N.Y.), pounced on the shooting massacre in Tucson Sunday, promising to introduce legislation as soon as Monday.
McCarthy ran for Congress after her husband was gunned down and her son seriously injured in a shooting in 1993 on a Long Island commuter train.

Fixed it for ya....luckily for us I don't think she's ever had a single piece of legislation (gun related or not) pass. Not that we can afford to relax, though.
Lorimor:
She introduces gun control legislation every session. It's her passion. I'm sure she carries around a bill ready to introduce at a moment's notice after every shooting tragedy.
DaveB:
If anything, with all the party fingerpointing, this will separate the two parties more. Nothing will get passed the house that the dems introduce as far as gun control. The dems are going to play this as hard as they can, overkill is not going to be in their favor.
I hope I'm right.
