On Friday President Barack Obama said he would meet with U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch on Monday to discuss ways of reducing gun violence in the United States.
周五美國總統奧巴馬表示,他將于周一會見美國司法部長霍爾德,討論減少美國槍支暴力的方式。
The announcement comes amid reports he intends to take executive action on the issue.
聲明是在奧巴馬打算就此問題采取行政行動之際。
In his weekly recorded address, Obama said he has received "too many letters from parents, and teachers, and kids, to sit around and do nothing."
在每周電臺演講上,奧巴馬表示他已經收到了“太多來自父母、老師和孩子的信件,說我們呆坐著無所事事”
He has repeatedly urged Congress to tighten gun laws.
他曾多次敦促國會加緊槍支法。
His calls for action have grown louder following the 2012 massacre at an elementary school in Newtown, Connecticut, and again this fall after mass shootings in Colorado Springs, Colorado, and San Bernardino, California.
2012年康涅狄格州紐敦小學慘案后,奧巴馬要求采取行動的呼聲日漸高漲,今年秋季科羅拉多斯普林斯和加利福尼亞圣博娜迪諾大規模槍擊事件后亦是如此。
