Rep. Jamaal Bowman’s Outburst on Capitol Hill Sparks Heated Debate Over Gun Control Legislation

Democratic Rep. Jamaal Bowman, a former middle school principal, sparked a heated debate on Capitol Hill when he yelled at his GOP colleagues for not supporting stricter gun measures in the wake of the Nashville school shooting. Rep. Bowman accused Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., of “carrying water for the gun lobby” and called his colleagues “cowards” for not doing more to protect children. His passionate plea for stricter gun control legislation has been met with mixed reactions from both sides of the aisle, sparking a much-needed conversation about the issue.
