WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Senate holds its second hearing on gun violence today since December's shooting deaths of 20 first-graders in Newtown, Conn.
A Senate Judiciary subcommittee is examining the constitutionality and effectiveness of federal firearms limits.
Among the witnesses are a woman whose Chicago police officer brother was fatally shot in 2010 and another from Texas who says firearms restrictions prevented her from protecting her parents when they were killed in a 1991 mass shooting.
