Thirty-five Senate Democrats have introduced legislation to ban “assault weapons” including popular AR-15-style semi-automatic rifles, citing concern about "domestic terrorism" following the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.

Lead sponsor Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) enlisted a majority of her Democratic colleagues as co-sponsors of the "Assault Weapons Ban of 2021."

"To be clear, this bill saves lives. When it was in place from 1994-2004, gun massacres declined by 37 percent compared with the decade before. After the ban expired, the number of massacres rose by 183 percent," Feinstein said in a statement.

"We're now seeing a rise in domestic terrorism, and military-style assault weapons are increasingly becoming the guns of choice for these dangerous groups"
