DOJ sends gun legislation package to White House as debate rages over mass shootings
The Department of Justice has sent a package of legislative proposals on gun violence to the White House, a person familiar with the matter told Fox News, as the debate rages over how lawmakers and the president should respond to a recent spate of deadly mass shootings. The White House has had the proposals for two weeks, according to the source, but has not yet sent anything along to Capitol Hill. It was not immediately clear what proposals are included in the DOJ package.

As the White House grapples with the gun debate, CVS and Walgreens on Thursday became the latest retailers to ask shoppers to leave their guns at home. The drugstore chains join Walmart and Kroger who earlier this week released a similar policy. Meanwhile, the National Rifle Association was defended, perhaps surprisingly, by two columnists from newspapers not known for their defense of gun rights. Both Los Angeles Times columnist Michael McGough and Henry Olsen of the Washington Post panned San Francisco's recent branding of NRA as a terror organization.
