New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg said Sunday that he is “cautiously optimistic” that Congress will pass gun control legislation.
“I am cautiously optimistic,” Bloomberg said during an interview on NBC’s “Meet the Press.” “I think when you have an issue where 90 percent of the public, 80 percent of NRA members even, say that they think we should have reasonable checks before people are allowed to buy guns. We all support the Second Amendment, as I do, but there are an awful lot of people that think that this is one of the great issues of our times. We have to stop the carnage.”
