Florida legislators, student activists and others were also there.

Everytown for Gun Safety

The nonprofit organization Everytown for Gun Safety is lobbying lawmakers on issues of gun control. It spent $1.3 million on lobbying in the past year and showed that it is more likely to spend money on Democrats than Republicans.

March for Our Lives

The March for Our Lives was approved by the National Park Service. It will take place in Washington DC on March 24. The event comes two days after a shooting at a Texas school. David Hogg, who was one of the survivors of the shooting, started the March for Our Lives. He has also organized sister marches across 45 states. The movement's focus is gun control. Organizers claim that they want to make "our communities safer."

Student activists

On Saturday, students took over the country organizing marches and calling for new gun laws to be passed. The March for Our Lives, their first act in political activism, was a start to a new political awakening. Although the students' demands were not met by legislators, they have ignited a new debate. What can we do to stop gun violence from happening in the future?


Florida lawmakers

The Republican-led Florida legislative session is entering its final week. There is a gun control drive underway. The goal is to remove Republican lawmakers who received campaign donations by the NRA and have consistently voted against gun controls legislation. Florida has been opposed to gun-control measures for a long time and holds an inordinate number of concealed weapon permits. It has strict laws that require you to "stand your grounds" and other matters that could lead the state to a gun massacre. NRA gave the state's current gun laws an "F" grade. However, Florida's governor has an "A-plus" rating and most legislators receive an "A-minus" or higher.

Stoneman Douglas High Schools students

Teens were inspired by the Florida shooting survivors to organize the March for Our Lives against gun violence. The March for Our Lives was held on March 24, last year. It focused on federal background checks on firearm sales. A House bill passed by Congress last month calls for stricter gun control laws, but the Senate is still undecided. Although March for Our Lives might not have achieved its goal yet the students are making sure their voices are heard.
