Congresswoman Brown: Limit Gun Sales to Suspected Terrorists

Congresswoman Corrine Brown says she supports legislation aimed at preventing those on the US Terrorist Watchlist from buying guns and explosives.

"I'm headed back to Washington. We're going to have a moment of prayer, and I believe in prayer, but then what are we going to do", said Brown. "This cannot continue, and it's a multiplicity of things that need to be done."Senator Bill Nelson Monday called for the bill's passage, along with Senators Charles Schumer, Dianne Feinstein and Richard Blumenthal, all Democrats.

Brown also is calling for legislation limiting the sale of assault weapons.
