Trump Says He'll Work With Congress to Stop Mass Shootings

Associated Press

   WASHINGTON - President Donald Trump expressed a commitment Sunday,
   hours after the latest deadly mass shooting, to work with a divided
   Congress to "stop the menace of mass attacks." He said any measures
   must satisfy the competing goals of protecting public safety and the
   constitutional right to gun ownership and seemed to cast fresh doubt on
   the merits of instituting more thorough background checks for gun
   purchases.

   Trump spoke shortly after the death toll in Saturday's rampage in West
   Texas rose to seven as authorities worked to understand why a man
   pulled over for a traffic infraction opened fire on state troopers and
   fled. He shot more than 20 people before he was killed by police. A
   motive has not been released.
