Rep. Earl Blumenauer (D-Ore.) is demanding “action” after a community college shooting that reportedly left 10 dead in Oregon on Thursday.
The congressman said “thoughts and prayers” are not enough in the wake of the tragedy and sent a link to his comprehensive gun reform plan, Enough is Enough, in a tweet hours after the shooting.
{mosads}Blumenauer made similar statements after an Oregon school shooting left one dead in 2014 and after the 2012 Newtown, Conn., massacre.
He has been a leading proponent of heightened gun regulations, including universal background checks.
A 20-year-old male gunman reportedly opened fire on students at Umpqua Community College. A student who claimed to have witnessed the shooting said the gunman questioned students about their religion before shooting them.
Umpqua has 3,300 full-time students, according to KTVU, and more than a dozen buildings on campus.
