Rep. Williams Urges Speaker Pelosi to Bring Bipartisan School Security Measures to the Floor

June 7, 2022

WASHINGTON, D.C. - Congressman Roger Williams (TX-25) sent a letter to Speaker Pelosi urging her to bring bipartisan bills to the House floor instead of a partisan gun control package that will be voted on later this week. You can read the full letter by clicking here.

"Instead of finding common ground to ensure the safety of our students and educators, Speaker Pelosi has chosen to bring forth partisan gun control bills that have no chance of becoming law," said Congressman Roger Williams. "After the Parkland shooting in 2018, I worked with school safety groups, law enforcement organizations, and Democrats to find real solutions to keep students and teachers safe. These efforts culminated in the Safer Schools Act which proactively addresses school security vulnerabilities and would have a tangible difference in making our classrooms more secure. Speaker Pelosi must stop trying to strip law abiding Americans of their Second Amendment right and bring forth concrete solutions to prevent these atrocities from happening in the future."
