ACP reaffirms calls to Congress for policies to reduce rate of firearms violence

(American College of Physicians) The American College of Physicians (ACP) today sent letters urging Congress to take immediate action to reduce the rate of firearms violence in the US. The letters to House and Senate leadership expressed ACP's alarm that despite multiple mass shootings across the country -- from Las Vegas to Florida -- comprehensive legislation to reduce the threat of injury or death from firearms has yet to be enacted.
