Vice President Kamala Harris on Saturday toured the bloodstained classroom building where the 2018 Parkland high school massacre happened.
by TERRY SPENCER | Associated PressVice President Kamala Harris speaks to the media after she and the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention met with families whose loved ones were murdered during the 2018 mass shooting that took the lives of 14 students and three staff members at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla., Saturday, March 23, 2024.
We must be willing to have the courage to say that on every level, whether you talk about changing laws or changing practices and protocols, that we must do better," Harris said. Following Harris' tour, she announced a $750 million grant program to provide technical assistance and training to Florida and the other 20 states that have similar "red flag laws."
"Red flag laws are simply designed to give communities a vehicle through which they can share ... information about the concern of potential danger or the crying out for help," Harris said. "It is important to bring these people through the building so they can see not only the horror that still exists there, but so that we can point to the exact things that failed," said Tony Montalto, president of Stand With Parkland, the group that represents most of the victims' families. His 14-year-old daughter Gina died in the shooting.
