Original Note:
The 150% appears to be from the same source as the senator's previous tweet on the subject. https://twitter.com/ChrisMurphyCT/status/1642972451658252289 That source does not give "gun homicide rates" as claimed, it gives "gun death rates", which include accidents and suicides. Data is also from 2017 but presented as being current. https://worldpopulationreview.com/state-rankings/gun-deaths-per-capita-by-state
