The Latest: Trump eyes court cases, rulings on age limits
He is assisted by Jay Sekulow, known for assisting conservative organizations in civil litigations.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) criticized the Trump proposal as "tiny baby steps" and said Democrats would press for expanded background checks, federal legislation on protection orders, and a ban on assault weapons.
However, the most common-sense part of the legislation has already provoked legal action by the NRA. "Everything is on the table", Education Secretary Betsy DeVos told NBC News' Today Show on Monday.
At his Feb. 28 meeting with lawmakers, Trump sounded open to new restrictions on gun purchase. Priebus argued that it isn't "a bad thing" that Trump insists on having officials with different ideological and political world views advising him on policy issues.
Priebus said that the Trump staff debated "week after week after week" on the tariffs. Legislators in states throughout the nation have chosen the lives of their residents over bulking up the campaign war chest.
White House officials said Trump's official gun plan was drafted within the confines of what Congress will allow - a notable contrast to Trump's "I alone can fix it" image as someone who could single-handedly cut through Washington gridlock. "I think this is the beginning".
Last week, he endorsed a face-to-face summit with Kim Jong Un after he tweeted in October that Secretary of State Rex Tillerson was "wasting his time" trying to negotiate with the North Korean dictator. A White House official said Trump still wanted stronger background checks but recognized the risks of alienating his supporters. Politicians often have a tenuous relationship with the truth; that is why I am so cynical generally. Recent polls have shown that a majority of American adults 67 percent 71 percent support raising the age for all gun purchases to 21.
A 19-year-old has been charged over the killing of 17 people at a school in Parkland, Florida, in February.
Beckett: There are elements of it that really do have broader backing from gun violence prevention experts.
"How do we prevent these acts from happening?"
Finally, in an administration wracked with crisis, turmoil and turnover, one man took a lonely stand on principle. The White House has not proposed offering states new funding for this training. In Connecticut, we serve as an example that it is possible to fortify our schools without turning them into fortresses.
"President Trump has completely caved to the gun lobby", said Sen. But just a second ago we heard DeVos say well a lot of these questions should be hashed out by the states.
During previous meetings, Mr. Trump also advocated arming certain teachers and school staffers, arguing that gun-free schools are "like an invitation for these very sick people" to commit murder.
During a meeting with six students and families from the Florida high school in the White House last month, Trump pledged to be "strong" on increasing the age limit.
"It totally eviscerates the right of law-abiding adults between the ages of 18 and 21 to keep and bear arms", the NRA said. And yet, these other weapons that we talk about ... they're allowed to buy them at 18. There is no point in trying to trade on anything that the President says, except maybe in a contrarian manner, because increasingly what he says seems to bear no resemblance to what he does in the end.
Students around the country might be massing for a march on Washington on March 24.
All video games sold at retailers and online carry a rating assigned by the Entertainment Software Ratings Board, and at least three trained raters assess each game.
"The White House is also supporting improved background checks". So again, they talk on making steps forward.
