Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Sunday said the Senate remains a hurdle in passing gun legislation after a gunman opened fire in New York one day earlier, killing 10 people and injuring three others. Asked by co-anchor Dana Bash on CNN's "State of the Union" if she, President Biden and other Democrats should make gun measures a bigger priority, Pelosi said "it is a huge priority for us, and it has been a huge priority for Joe Biden." "But the fact is the 60-vote majority in the Senate is an obstacle to doing any, many good things, unfortunately, and again, we are not going away until the job is done," Pelosi said. |
