WATCH: Rep. Jim Jordan demands Congress not infringe on Americans’ 2A rights

While they appear gung-ho to address gun violence and mass shootings, Democrats remain uncommitted to reducing the kind of crime that actually results in the greatest cost to American lives, and instead focusing on limiting the rights of lawful citizens.

"Think about what the Democrats want to do," Jordan said. "Step one: Defund the police. Democrats here in Congress and Democrat mayors around the country—demonizing, demoralizing our law enforcement officers, and actually defunding police to the tune of over $1 billion last year in all our major cities. What's the result of that? Crime is up in every major city.

"Step two: Release violent offenders from our prisons. Last year Chairman Nadler introduced a bill to pay states and municipalities to empty their prisons and jails. The bill called for the release of violent offenders from state prisons and local jails. Inmates were only deemed eligible for release if they did 'not pose a risk of serious injury to a reasonably identified person.' In other words, it was okay to release inmates as long as they didn't pose an immediate risk to a specific individual.

"Step three," he continued, "Take away guns from law abiding Americans so that they can't defend themselves. This hearing today is about the numerous bills introduced by our Democrat colleagues [that] make clear that they want to disarm law-abiding American citizens by depriving them of their constitutional rights."

Jordan notes that "none of these bills would have prevented any recent mass shootings."

Crime is up across the country, and the Congress has been focusing on laws that allow citizens to report other citizens for owning, seeking to own, or to carry fire arms. Jordan questions the idea that people should be deprived of their rights due to being reported and called out to law enforcement by others.

President Joe Biden has called for these so-called red flag laws to be implemented across the country. This would allow individuals to report on others who they fear will be a danger if they have access to a fire arm.

The administration has released its plan for reducing gun violence, and with every public mass shooting, has called for an increase in gun control legislation. They don't do this after street crime events, however, that don't capture national attention.

The Biden administration has instead concerned itself with so-called "ghost guns," which are DIY firearms kits that do not have serial numbers. They want rules on "stabilizing braces," or stocks that can be used to keep guns steady when firing. They are pressing for red flag laws, as Jordan described.

They want more money, about $5 billion, to create jobs, believing that crime will be stopped if more people are working. And they determined that "The Justice Department will issue a new, comprehensive report on firearms trafficking and annual updates necessary to give policymakers the information they need to help address firearms trafficking today."
