US correspondent Kelsey Snell joins Kathryn to look at how the recent spate of gun violence in the US hasn't stopped, with at least 15 people dead and 60 wounded in eight states over the weekend.
Lawmakers are under pressure to pass some kind of gun legislation - but options on the table don't meet the demands of the President who wants a ban on assault weapons or a rise in the minimum age to buy a gun.

Kelsey Snell is a congressional correspondent for NPR, based in Washington DC.
