We naturally focus on the staggering number of people killed when assault weapons are used in mass shootings, but we must not forget the horrendous impact on the even greater number who are injured but not killed.

This article describes just how horrific: "The woman, grievously wounded in the mass shooting at a Walmart, lay on an operating table as the chief of surgery, Dr. Alan Tyroch, turned her to clean the exit wounds. He knew what to expect, but it was still a horrific sight. She had two gaping holes the size of a man’s fist in her side and a third the size of a silver dollar where bullets had burst from her body."

This is the human cost of Mitch McConnell's inaction.
