His statement accompanied a formal resolution calling for an end to the strikes.

AURORA | Aurora Congressperson Jason Crow has reintroduced the Equal Access to Justice for Victims of Gun Violence Act, saying the legislation would allow survivors and family members of victims of gun violence to sue and hold the gun industry accountable for negligence and disregard for public safety.
“Victims and survivors should be able to hold the gun industry accountable in court for negligent behavior. But right now, the gun industry is shielded from any liability when they disregard public safety. That’s wrong,” Crow said in a statement. “I’m introducing this bill so we can finally hold the gun industry responsible.”

U.S. Rep. Jason Crow, one of the co-sponsors, said that as a veteran himself, “we still don’t do nearly enough to address sexual assault in the ranks. We need to make sure we are creating a system and culture of accountability in the military to protect our women and men in uniform.”
He added: “The military failed Vanessa Guillén but I refuse to let Congress fail her or her family. It is Congress that decides what kind of military we have and now.”
