Biden urges Congress to ban assault weapons after Texas mall shooting

United States President Joe Biden on Sunday urged the Congress to pass a bill banning assault weapons after the latest shooting in Texas.

'Once again, Congress must send me a bill banning assault weapons and high-capacity magazines. Enacting universal background checks. Requiring safe storage. Ending immunity for gun manufacturers. I will sign it immediately. We need nothing less to keep our streets safe,' Biden said on Twitter.
