The Obama administration said the legislators failed the American people by not advancing any gun control measures after the nation's largest mass shooting in Orlando, Florida, last week. Republican Senator Susan Collins of Maine was trying to keep gun control attempts alive. In failing that test, the Senate failed the American people," he said.
