The rise of armed violence in America is such that every week we see bloody shootings in some part of the United States. These shootings in public places such as schools, shopping malls and churches have increased dramatically.

It is said that the high number of mass shootings in America has caused public anxiety and insecurity. It has caused many political debates. Critics accuse pro-gun Republican extremists of treacherous collaboration with the gun lobby.

In recent years, anti-gun lobby groups have gained influence in America, but at the top of politics Because of the balance of power in the Senate and systemic constraints, not much has been done yet, so Republicans are still siding with gun owners and Democrats are getting nowhere with their projects. Some say; Biden could easily issue executive orders, or declare a public health emergency and take countermeasures in light of the gun violence toll, however, in either case it would be easy to overturn, and until the next election. There are only a few months left.

National Rifle Association of America (NRA) One of the most powerful non-military organizations in this It is the country that drives the interests of gun owners and those who deem it necessary.

This community may have lost some of its influence in recent years. And it no longer has the financial power of 2016, when it spent about $54 million on the presidential campaign, but the gun lobby and its supporters have since invested about $33 million in the 2020 presidential election. One of their main goals is to prevent stricter laws against gun owners.

Government Democrats are especially in favor of strict gun laws, while Republicans are against it. It is, but the majority of American political representatives are against building a legislative wall in the US Senate against this issue. To implement such a project, a 60% majority in Congress is required, which does not exist.
