This is only 1 of the Sandy Hook survivors, who graduates high school this week. It reminds me of a colleague's experience yesterday, meeting with Ted Cruz. All he could offer were thoughts, prayers and right wing gun lobby talking points which are not based on any factual studies. . These kids don't care about your thoughts and prayers! They want #MEANINGFULACTION on #commonsensegunlaws because we KNOW that #gunlawssavelives
This #GVSURVIVORSWEEK we're sharing stories from survivors of gun violence. I will never forget the horror & helplessness I felt that day when I heard about Sandy Hook. I thought surely THAT would be the thing that caused America to #DoSomethingToEndGunViolence I found MOMSDEMANDACTION.ORG shortly afterward and remain committed to fighting for #CommonSenseGunLaws.
