That's one of our guys.House Minority Whip Scalise gave an impassioned speech against the bill on the House floor, much to the chagrin of Democrats who had blocked him from testifying at a gun control hearing earlier this month.
Imagine that. Scalise was a victim of a Bernie Sanders-loving supporter who shot him on a baseball field in 2017.
But Democrats didn’t want to hear what Scalise had to say because, as Scalise later noted, “they just wanted to hear the side of people who [were] promoting gun control.”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Scalise#cite_note-Ruiz-46Wikipedia said:"After being shot, and in the wake of the 2017 Las Vegas shooting, Scalise said on Meet the Press that he is still a gun rights supporter: "Don't try to put new laws in place that don't fix these problems. They only make it harder for law-abiding citizens to own a gun." Scalise has described the Second Amendment as "unlimited."[46]"
