Rep. Adam Schiff Congressman from California and the PLCAA

Congressman Adam Schiff represents California's 28th Congressional District, and throughout his tenure in Congress, he has focused on growing the economy, bolstering national security, strengthening our communities, helping small businesses, and improving education, safety and health care for our children.

In his 8th term in the House of Representatives, Schiff currently serves as the Ranking Member, or top Democrat, of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence and as a Member of the Benghazi Select Committee. The House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence oversees all of the nation’s intelligence agencies.

With his bona fides firmly established as a distinguished Democrat, Rep. Schiff has championed the following:

1. Schiff and Blumenthal Introduce Legislation to Give Gun Victims Their Day in Court and End Gun Industry’s Liability Shield

2. Dem Senator Frustrated By Inaction on Guns Begins Filibuster (Associated Press)

3. Congressman and constituents come together to quell gun violence (Beverly Press)

4. Schiff Offers Amendment to Give Congress Authority to Seek Gun Trace Data

5. Equal Access to Justice for Victims of Gun Violence Act

And several others... http://schiff.house.gov/search?q=guns

Makes you wonder why the top ranking member of the Intelligence Committee would undertake what some call an unintelligent attack on the PLCAA, doesn't it? Not to mention his focus on reducing gun violence in this country with common sense solutions.
