Retired Arizona Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-AZ) exhorted the Senate Judiciary Committee - and the rest of her former Congressional colleagues - to take action on items to reduce gun violence.
She spoke for 90 seconds, and the clip below includes her entering the committee hearing room (with husband, Capt. Mark Kelly, and the Chair and Ranking Member of the committee - Sens. Patrick Leahy (D-VT) and Chuck Grassley (R-IA)), and leaving the room (with staff).
Giffords told the Committee "It will be hard. You must act! Be bold! Be courageous! Americans are counting on you!"
