How Will the U.S. Respond to Two Mass Shootings Just Days Apart?

March 28, 2021

A gunman killed ten people at a Colorado supermarket just days after another shooter killed 8 people at three Atlanta-area spas. Lawmakers and advocates are once again calling for gun control. But if the past is any indicator, nothing will get to the president’s desk. That’s something Shannon Watts is trying to change. After the Sandy Hook massacre, when a gunman killed 20 little kids and 6 adults, she founded “Moms Demand Action.” She talks to Soledad about how her group is working to pass stronger gun laws.
