MADISON, Wis. — The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel asked Wisconsin’s congressional candidates to answer questions on the three issues voters said were most important to them this election cycle: health care, inflation, and gun violence. But for Bryan Steil, even that was too much to ask.

In his op-ed for the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Bryan Steil refused to answer the prompt question on mass shootings and gun safety. According to the Journal Sentinel, as of September 6, there have been 30 mass killings in the U.S. this year. When asked what legislation he would support to curb mass shootings, Bryan Steil simply didn’t have anything to say. Instead of working on proactive legislation to save lives, Steil is focused on prosecuting criminals after the damage has been done.

Bryan Steil repeatedly votes against common-sense gun legislation, even when the overwhelming majority of Wisconsinites support universal background checks and red flag laws. It’s clear Steil is content to let the gun violence crisis run unchecked and leave Wisconsinites in harm’s way.
