WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden spoke Thursday with the owners of an LGBTQ nightclub in Colorado Springs, Colorado, where five people were killed in a mass shooting, offering a sign of support as he pushes to ban assault weapons.
The president, along with first lady Jill Biden, spoke on Thanksgiving with Club Q owners Nic Grzecka and Matthew Haynes.
The Bidens “reiterated their support for the community as well as their commitment to fighting back against hate and gun violence,” the White House said in a statement.
