The House Oversight Committee's top Democrat highlighted the issue of gun violence in the US during Monday's hearing. The focus was on the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump, which was described as part of a concerning trend of mass shootings in the country.
Representative Jamie Raskin from Maryland emphasized the unfortunate reality that Trump and others wounded at the rally have now joined the ranks of thousands affected by mass shootings. Raskin's speech was accompanied by a visual aid listing several other tragic shooting incidents that have occurred nationwide.
