NEW YORK — Vice President Harris railed against gun violence and attacks on democracy in a New York City speech Friday before activists and elected officials at the National Action Network.
In a keynote address at the civil rights organization’s annual convention, Harris called out pretenders blocking democracy under the guise of freedom, and urged legislators from coast to coast to pass meaningful gun control in the face of ongoing mass shootings.
“We must have reasonable gun safety laws at the state and federal level. And by the way, most gun owners agree,” Harris said.
