cornyn sent a form letter not really saying one way or the other how he was going to look at hte matter.
Dear Mr. Huffman:
Thank you for contacting me regarding the horrific events in Newtown, Connecticut. I appreciate having the benefit of your comments on this tragedy.
My thoughts and prayers are with the victims and their families as well as with all the citizens of Newtown who were affected by this tragedy. On December 17, 2012, I joined my Senate colleagues in cosponsoring Senate Resolution 621 to honor the victims and heroes of the shooting.
It is a tragedy for the entire nation whenever a life is taken in an act of violence. I share your concern for the safety of our children in their schools, and you may be certain that I will keep your views in mind as policy changes are considered in the coming weeks. Now, we join with the families as they grieve the tragic loss of twenty children and their teachers, and we join together as a nation to honor their memories.
I appreciate having the opportunity to represent Texas in the United States Senate. Thank you for taking the time to contact me.
Sincerely,
JOHN CORNYN

Dear Friend:
Thank you for contacting me regarding the terrible tragedy in Connecticut. Like all Americans, my thoughts and prayers are with the victims and their families.
As our whole nation grieves, we wait for more information about the killer's motives and means. We all want to do something to halt such senseless killings, but the question is always what law could have stopped an individual apparently so determined to commit such violent and destructive acts.
I join you in the hope that we never again encounter such a tragedy and will certainly keep your thoughts in mind.
Sincerely,
Kay Bailey Hutchison

Dear Mr. Guerrero :
Thank you for contacting me with your thoughts on the ongoing national discussion about gun rights and the 2nd Amendment. I appreciate the benefit of having your views on this matter.
Please know that I am a strong supporter of the 2nd Amendment. I believe that law abiding Americans should be allowed to protect themselves. The right to bear arms is fundamental and must be protected . Furthermore, it is understood that the greatest deterrent to violent crime is a criminal's fear that his intended victim might be armed.
I strongly oppose legislation that infringes on our 2nd Amendment rights. I will keep your views in mind should legislation come before me on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives or in committee for a vote.
Once again, thank you for contacting my office. Also, please feel free to visit my website, www.mccaul.house.gov for more information on constituent services, legislative updates, my E-Newsletter, and the ongoing work in Congress. It continues to be a great honor to be allowed to represent you in the United States House of Representative.

Dear Mr. Toledo:
*
Thank you for contacting me to share your thoughts regarding*the horrific*Sandy Hook school*shootings and the future of gun control legislation.* As your Congressman, I am committed to putting the needs of Mississippi families first, and knowing your views and ideas on federal legislation is critical in order to best represent you.* To this extent, your comments and ideas are always appreciated.
What happened in Newtown is a national tragedy and my thoughts and prayers go out to all the people of Newtown and mostly the families of the victims. The murder of innocent children and adults at Sandy Hook Elementary School is an inexcusable act that reminds us of what is truly important in life, family and friends.* As a result of these horrific events there is a renewed focus on gun legislation in Washington, both in favor and against additional controls.* President Obama has made calls for action, and has proposed the establishment of a task force that will make recommendations dealing with both mental health and gun rights issues.*
As a gun owner, I believe it is important that we are cautious to oppose any proposals that may weaken the right to bear arms expressly mentioned in the Bill of Rights. I also believe it is important to fully examine what can be done to avoid*tragedies in*the future.*Rest assured, I will not compromise in any way your Second Amendment rights to reform a system that currently ensures the freedom to own and carry personal firearms, but I will work to ensure that our families and friends are protected from future mass tragedies.
As I close, let me again thank you for contacting me and helping me to better understand the concerns of Mississippians. If there is any assistance I can provide or if you have additional thoughts and opinions, don't hesitate to contact me.* As a reminder, please visit my website*www.palazzo.house.gov*and sign up for our E-newsletter for updates on issues in legislation.
Sincerely,
*
