YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

U.S. President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden met on Friday (November 3) with families and victims of a mass shooting that devastated the city of Lewiston, Maine.

On Oct. 25, a gunman opened fire on people at a bowling alley and a bar in Lewiston, killing 18 people, injuring 13 and sending shock waves through the rural community. Robert R. Card, 40, a U.S. Army reservist, was identified as the killer. He took his own life inside a cargo trailer parked on the lot of a recycling plant where he once worked.

Biden has urged Congress to act on gun safety legislation that has been stalled. The latest mass shooting in the United States prompted U.S. Representative Jared Golden, whose constituents died in the massacre, to reverse his opposition to a ban on assault-style weapons.

But his change of heart does not change the equation in Washington, where Biden's push to reinstate a ban of such guns has been a non-starter for Republicans who control the House of Representatives and back gun rights.
