One of America's most powerful Senators is vowing to try and tighten the country's gun control laws.
Senator Charles Schumer, a Democrat from New York, says the mass shooting that claimed 9 lives during a bible study class in South Carolina earlier this month should serve as a "wake-up call" for the country.
He says he'll propose legislation to tighten national standards aimed at preventing guns from falling into the hands of the mentally ill.
