— ENDORSEMENT: U.S. Sen. Chris Murphy, a Democrat from Connecticut and a leading voice on gun violence prevention, is throwing his support behind Congresswoman Robin Kelly’s bid for the U.S. Senate in Illinois. “Robin and I have worked together for years to make communities safer from gun violence,” he said in a statement.

“We would not have beaten the gun lobby and passed the first piece of gun-safety legislation in over 30 years without her partnership and support. She’s exactly the kind of fighter Illinois needs, and I’m proud to endorse her for Senate,” Murphy said. Murphy and Kelly helped push through the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act in 2022, the first major gun safety law passed in nearly three decades. Video here
