John Mellencamp slammed politicians on Twitter for a "vague notion" of new gun control laws after the Senate advanced new bipartisan gun safety legislation.
Tracy Wright is an entertainment writer for Fox News Digital.
"What kind of people are we who claim that we care about pro-life? Just so you know, anyone that's reading this … politicians don't give a f--- about you, they don't give a f--- about me, and they don't give a f--- about our children. So, with that cheery thought in mind, have a happy summer, because it will be just a short time before it happens again."
Mellencamp seemed to be referring to the U.S. Senate vote Tuesday that advanced a new bipartisan gun control bill that, if passed, could bring the first significant change to firearm legislation in decades.
