From WNYC Studios. I'm Brian Lerer. This is my daily politics podcast. It's Tuesday, June 18th.

Now our monthly call-your-Senator segment, my questions and yours for Senator Kirsten Gillibrand.

I'll be asking about the Supreme

more than 400. The New York Times says the gunman with a bumpstock equipped rifle, actually

attack, much faster than non-bump stock-equipped firearms.

has to pass a law. Well, Senator Gillibrand has such a bill, and we will ask if she thinks

they have the votes on what might be, or at least could possibly be, a bipartisan gun control measure.

We'll also touch on the Supreme Court's Miffra-Pristone ruling.

The abortion pill can remain in circulation for now,

plus an IVF-related bill the Senator has,

also the several new immigration policies from President Biden.

And Senator, thanks, as always, for doing this.
