VP: I’ll chat with Newtown kin

HARTFORD, Conn. — Vice President Joe Biden is willing to meet with any families of the school-shooting victims who would like to speak with him personally, a Newtown group said yesterday.

Biden is leading an administration review of gun-safety laws following last month’s massacre of 20 first-graders and six women at Sandy Hook Elementary.

The group, Sandy Hook Promise, which recently changed its name from Newtown United, e-mailed the victims’ families and offered to arrange a call or put them in touch directly with Biden’s office.
