Congressman Steve Chabot, a Republican representing Ohio's first district, told Cheddar that new gun laws will not stop criminals from obtaining lethal weapons and committing crimes.

The congressman is also Chairman of the Small Business Committee. He said on Tuesday that the republican's proposed tax plan will cut taxes for small businesses down to 25 percent.

"I think that comment is just ludicrous," Chabot said.
