Gov. Walz says GOP leaders won't consider any gun bans

Published | Video Starts at 02:11

Well, I'm not going to speak for it. Look, I'll also say this. There's legitimate concerns about safety of legislators and they're deeply concerned because it's been clear. I thought If we come back for a special session on the gun issue, we should probably not have guns in the Capitol. I've expressed my opinion on that for years. They said that is unacceptable and wouldn't happen. So I think there's that piece of it and then it's trying to figure out what it actually looks like when they get back. (02:11–02:18)
