This bill is an unprecedented attack on the due process rights of victims injured by the misconduct of an industry that seeks to escape the legal rules that govern the rest of us. We believe state and federal courts across this nation are prepared to strike it down,
This is the United States Congress stepping in and saying these victims cannot get any kind of relief, even though their claims have already been recognized to be valid.
The Congress can pass it. The President can sign it. But this shameful law will not stand, ... We will challenge the constitutionality of this special- interest extravaganza in every court where the rights of gun violence victims are being threatened.
