Enough: Biden urges Congress to pass gun control bills after lowering flag for latest mass shooting
WASHINGTON – President Joe Biden ordered the flag over the White House to "yet again" be lowered to half-staff Wednesday after a gunman killed at least eight people at a light rail yard in California.
He also issued a one word plea: "Enough."
Biden said Congress should immediately "heed the call of the American people, including the vast majority of gun owners, to help end this epidemic of gun violence in America."
"Every life that is taken by a bullet pierces the soul of our nation," Biden said in a statement. "We can, and we must, do more."
