Texas State Senator Roland Gutierrez walked off the Senate floor and joined
for a discussion of the failure of policymakers — especially those on the right beholden to the gun lobby — to keep our children from being murdered in their schools. The Senator represents the region that includes Uvalde, so he knows firsthand what’s at stake.He has been a tireless and strong voice against the careless Republican politicians and policies in his state.
But at some point, this madness will come to somebody we know, God forbid.
~ Sen. Gutierrez
But he’s not the only fighter Bobby spoke to. He welcomed his old friend, the executive director of the Maine Gun Safety Coaltion, Nacole Palmer. Her group is leading the charge in her state to enact common-sense gun safety laws. They’ve already seen successes, but it’s not enough — and there aren’t enough other states jumping into the fray.

We have a long way to go. Every day that our children don’t feel safe in their classrooms is a day we could be — should be — fighting back.
