Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) on Thursday unveiled a slate of school safety and background check proposals after 17 people were killed in a Florida shooting last month.
"I also know that there is widespread support and agreement that we must act now, as soon as possible, to prevent another tragedy like Parkland," Rubio said from the Senate floor.
Rubio outlined six bills that he either supports or will be introducing in the wake of the Parkland, Fla., high school shooting, including creating "gun violence restraining orders" that would allow law enforcement or family members to get a court order to prevent an individual deemed dangerous from buying a gun or remove a gun from their possession.
