Ex-GOP lawmaker: Vote Republicans out of office if you want mass shootings stopped
By Mallory Shelbourne - 02/15/18 09:14 AM EST
Former Rep. David Jolly (R-Fla.) on Wednesday argued American voters must flip the House of Representatives to a Democratic majority if they want Congress to address gun control in the wake of a Florida high school shooting that left 17 people dead and others injured.
“And so if this is the issue that defines your ideology as a voter, there are two things I would suggest tonight. First, flip the House. Flip the House,†Jolly told “CNN Tonight.†“Republicans are not going to do a single thing after this shooting we saw today. But I would also offer to Democrats, work for incremental wins.â€
Jolly, who left office last January after losing a reelection bid, argued Democrats should work with the law enforcement community on gun control legislation.
