‘You’re A Liar And A Hack!’ GOP Senator Explodes After Schumer Blocks School Safety Bill
Jon Dougherty May 26, 2022
As Democrats in Congress and around the country passionately call for additional new measures to protect students in schools following another grotesque massacre of youngsters at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, on Tuesday, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has blocked a GOP-led bill tightening school security from consideration.
And that has angered several Republicans, some of whom have lashed out at the New York Democrat.
Fox News reports:
After the horrific mass shooting at a Uvalde, Texas, elementary school that killed 19 children and two teachers, Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wisc., asked for the Luke and Alex School Safety Act to be passed by unanimous consent.
The bill, named after Parkland, Florida, shooting victims Luke Hoyer and Alex Schachter, would require the Department of Homeland Security to establish a “Federal Clearinghouse on School Safety Best Practices” for use by state and local educational and law-enforcement agencies, institutions of higher education, health professionals, and the public.In addition, the legislation would require DHS to “collect clearinghouse data analytics, user feedback on the implementation of best practices and recommendations identified by the clearinghouse, and any evaluations conducted on these best practices and recommendations.”
The clearinghouse, which is already set up at SchoolSafety.gov, would be codified into law upon the bill’s passage.
But Schumer took to Twitter to claim that the legislation “could see more guns in schools.”
