The National Rifle Association went after Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), who introduced legislation to ban assault weapons Thursday, calling the effort “disappointing but not surprising.”

“Senator Feinstein has been trying to ban guns from law-abiding citizens for decades,” the NRA said in a statement. “It’s disappointing but not surprising that she is once again focused on curtailing the Constitution instead of prosecuting criminals or fixing our broken mental health system. The American people know gun bans do not work and we are confident Congress will reject Senator Feinstein’s wrong-headed approach.”
