U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday called on lawmakers to pass legislation requiring strong background checks for firearm purchases following two mass shooting in Texas and Ohio over the weekend that killed 29 people.
Trump, who is scheduled to deliver remarks at the White House later on Monday morning following the attacks, said the victims' deaths could not be "in vain" and called on both political parties to take steps to require further screenings for gun buyers.
