Nancy Pelosi called on Donald Trump to use his constitutional powers to bring the Senate back into session, ramping up her efforts to force Republicans to act against gun violence
The Kentucky Republican said Thursday he wouldn't bring the Senate back early but did express openness to considering various gun control ideas, including background checks.
Trump has broadly expressed support for background checks multiple times since mass shootings in El Paso, Texas, and Dayton, Ohio, left at least 31 people dead and many more wounded. Trump added he’s “all in favor” of the idea. But the president, notably, has not pressured McConnell or other Republicans to take up background checks legislation that passed the House in February.
