Our hearts are broken over the tragic deaths of nineteen elementary school children and two teachers at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, on Tuesday, May 24th, 2022. It comes less than two weeks after a shooter at Tops Supermarket in Buffalo, New York, left ten people dead. Our thoughts and prayers are with the families in Uvalde, and Buffalo, and families across the United States who have lost loved ones to gun violence. But thoughts and prayers are not enough. Our national leaders must take action to keep our communities – and our children – safe from gun violence.
