Joe Biden Reiterates False Claim That Guns Are ‘Leading Killer of Children’
On Monday, President Joe Biden reiterated his false claim that guns are the “leading killer of children.”
Biden tweeted:
Guns are the leading killer of children in America, and the numbers are rising.
What has our nation come to when children cannot attend a birthday party without fear? When parents have to worry every time their kids walk out the door to school, the movie theater, or to the park?

Biden has made the claim regarding guns and children numerous times. He began doing so in the summer of 2022, which is when Breitbart News fact checked his claim and found it to be false. . .
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) data shows that the number of firearm related deaths for children 0-17 was 2,281 in 2020, while the number of motor vehicle deaths for the same ages was 2,503.
