WASHINGTON — A congressional committee held an emergency session Thursday to take up a package of gun violence prevention bills, likely setting up votes on the House floor next week.
The House Judiciary Committee's Thursday morning session was scheduled in the wake of recent mass shootings in Buffalo, New York, and Uvalde, Texas.
Then Tulsa, Oklahoma, joined the growing list of mass shooting sites Wednesday when a gunman opened fire in a medical building, killing four before taking his own life.
