Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) slammed his colleagues for doing "nothing" to address gun violence on Tuesday, hours after a gunman shot and killed at least 14 kids and one teacher at a Texas elementary school.
The backdrop: Murphy was the representative for the district that included Newtown, where a gunman killed 26 people, 20 of whom were children ages 6 and 7, at Sandy Hook Elementary School in 2012. Tuesday's shooting comes on the heels of a string of recent mass shootings, including incidents in Buffalo and Laguna Woods.
