Giffords to Senate: 'Americans are counting on you'

Former Arizona Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, who sustained a gunshot to the head in a January 2011 Tucson town hall shooting, is expected to speak at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on gun violence Wednesday, multiple sources reported.

Gifford's husband, astronaut Mark Kelly, had been scheduled to testify before the committee at the 10 a.m. hearing, but his wife was not on the list of witnesses. Reports indicate Giffords will deliver an opening statement.

Committee spokeswoman Jessica Brady could not confirm Giffords' plans to Yahoo News Wednesday morning.

Giffords and Kelly founded a non-profit, Americans for Responsible Solutions, to promote gun reform following the shooting that severely injured Giffords and 12 others, and killed six.
