Dodd Hid Loaded Pistol During Senate Censure Drama
Five years ago this week Senator Tom Dodd faced a near ruinous censure vote on June 23, 1967 as he fingered a loaded pistol in his coat pocket while colleagues prepared to condemn him. Staffers feared a self inflicted tragedy and arranged to disarm him on the Senate floor. The pistol was ultimately removed and Dodd continued to champion gun control, helping pass the Gun Control Act of 1968 and the Federal Narcotics Act of 1970.
