Up Close: The debate over gun laws

NEW YORK (WABC) -- Tears streaking his cheeks, President Barack Obama launched a final-year push this week to tighten sales of firearms in the U.S., using his presidential powers in the absence of tougher gun restrictions that Congress has refused to pass.

Joining us this week is Connecticut Gov. Dan Malloy, who was at the president's announcement along with some of the families of the victims of the school shootings in Newtown, Connecticut.


Also with us to talk about the week in presidential politics, including the war of words between Donald Trump and the Clintons, is political consultant Hank Sheinkopf.
