A group of congressional Democrats announced Tuesday a new push to repeal a long-standing provision of federal law that protects firearms manufacturers from being sued when their products are misused.
The “Equal Justice for Victims of Gun Violence Act” was originally introduced by Democrat Rep. Adam Schiff of California in 2017.On Tuesday, Schiff announced he had re-introduced the bill and rallied in Washington, D.C., along with Democrat Sens. Richard Blumenthal and Chris Murphy of Connecticut and Reps. Debbie Mucarsel-Powell of Florida, Jason Crow of Colorado and Dwight Evans of Pennsylvania.
Legislators were joined by members of March For Our Lives, Newtown Action Alliance, Everytown For Gun Safety, Moms Demand Action and the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence.
Blumenthal and Schiff framed the issue as part of congressional Democrats’ efforts to pass gun control legislation, they said at the news conference announcing the bill.

After listing major shooting incidents, Schiff said, “These deaths are preventable.”
He called the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act, passed by Congress in 2005, “a little known but deeply destructive bill.”“Under state and federal law, we require and expect every other industry, whether car-makers or drug companies, to act with reasonable care for public safety,” he said, adding that the legislation was needed “to correct the error that Congress made in 2005.”

He added that this piece of legislation was designed to “ensure that victims of gun violence can have their day in court.”
