Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) joined CBS MORNINGS to react to the school shooting in Uvalde, Texas. He discussed the next steps for Congress on gun safety legislation and background checks. “Why spend all this time coming to Congress … and then do nothing slaughter after slaughter?” Senator Murphy says his colleagues who refuse to “come to the table” on common sense gun legislation are not doing enough to stop school shootings.
