Murphy to raise money for pro-gun control Democrats

He calls the campaign “NR8.” U.S. Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., whose signature issue is gun control, will hold a 24-hour fundraising spree next week to boost the campaigns of eight Democrats who are challenging NRA-supported incumbents. “My idea was to launch a one-day online fundraising campaign for eight Democratic candidates who are strong on gun violence reform and who are running to replace incumbents who are A-rated NRA members in seats or states that Hillary Clinton won,” said Murphy in a statement. Clinton and a high-profile list of other Democrats, including eight U.S. Senators and four U.S. Representatives, will join Murphy in the effort to raise $1 million on Oct. 5.
