Senator Baucus: Do the right thing.

Senator Max Baucus recently voted against a bill to expand background checks for gun purchases. 79% of Montanans and an even higher percentage of the rest of the country supported this bill. Senator Baucus has since said he would listen to what Montanans have to say about this issue and would take that into consideration if the bill is re-introduced for a vote. What's even more disturbing about Senator Baucus' "no" vote, is that he has stated that he will not be running for re-election in 2014 and has decided to retire. It's unconscionable that Senator Baucus and the rest of Congress can't even pass this one little step to address the issue of the horrible gun violence that has infested this country.
