expelled him from the legislature, representative justin jones sworn in for a second time after nashville city councilors voted unanimously to reappoint him to the statehouse. we're following these major stories and many more all coming in right here to cnn. new central. soon we're going to get an update from officials in louisville on the investigation into the mass shooting that happened yesterday. we're going to be bringing that to live when it happens, and also first on cnn investigators now say new video shows the attack inside the louisville bank lasted only about one minute. this is according to a review of the instagram video that the gunman livestream does he carried out the shooting. officials also say you can hear on the video, a woman greeting the gunman. and he telling her quote, you need

to get out of here and then he shoots her. we have more details coming in. let's get over to cnn's omar jimenez in louisville for that, omar, what more are you picking up? okay, so we know this video was live streamed, and we're now learning what investigators were seeing on that livestream video before it was taken down, according to an official. so the shooter, as you mentioned, tells a worker to get out of here with a clearly visible a ar 15 rifle. and then , as she tries to do so, he then turns to try and shoot her in the back. but the safety was on and the gun had yet to be wasn't loaded, according to this official. so then he loaded the gun. and then proceeds to shoot her in the back. her condition is unknown, then proceeds to continue firing on at other bank employees who are trying to run as he continues shooting as you mentioned, the shooting lasted in total, just about a minute, but in that time, five people were killed and eight others injured after the shooting was

done again, according to the officials, describing what investigators were seeing the shooter sat down in the lobby of the building just behind me. waited looking out onto main street, which is the street behind me until police arrived. and then, as we know from police , that's when a gun battle began , and then the shooter ended up dead here this morning. we see the bank behind me. the windows are boarded up. there's a disaster recovery team here as well, likely cleaning up a lot of i can only imagine just unspeakable carnage. inside as for the shooter himself. we know from a law enforcement source that he wrote a note to his parents and friends, saying he was going to shoot at the bank because he believed there are separately he believed he was going to be fired. and that's all part of the investigation into what may have motivated the shooting. we know that five or killed eight others injured, four have now been discharged from the hospital. three are in stable and fair condition, but

one remains in critical condition. we do know one of the responding police officers. 26 year old nicholas world was shot in the head while responding. he was put in critical condition. so obviously a lot of people waiting with bated breath to see what his recovery process is going to look like, but of course, we're awaiting now. new details with the press conference set to get going and just about 30 minutes with the mayor and police chief hospital officials and more who are expected not just get more details about this. but also a planned vigil later on as this community tries to process what's happened and what is still happening, as many of them are still dealing with the aftermath of this, omar. thank you very much for that update. we're going to bring you that live when that press conference does begin. john were expecting that in just a few minutes. in the meantime, cnn chief law enforcement and intelligence analyst john miller is here with me, john the revelations from the livestream. how will investigators use that to piece together the narrative? well,

they're going to piece it together from three places. i mean, one. there is the bank cameras that give you the wide view. but most cases they don't have sound too. you've got the body cam that the police officers have which gives you sound and picture, but only after they arrived. the livestream is going to be critical and understanding what was happening before police arrived and what? what what words were exchanged between the shooter. bank employees. did he say why he was doing it as he as he opened fire on these people. what were his encounters? so the livestream video, which was recorded and then taken down from instagram is going to provide a lot of valuable insight. the very idea. of a live stream in this case is, you know tennis. it's diabolical, but it's also not the first time . so what has been learned about people who choose to do something like this? that's a fascinating question. you know, this is something that emerged first in the new zealand attack

against the mosque where the shooter livestreamed. his attacks on two masks in that country, and that video actually became, unfortunately, the inspiration for other lives for other active shooters to livestream. there's but here's what it really means. in this particular case, you have a shooter who leaves a note at home for mom and dad and a friend. you know, think just back to the nashville shooting where she reaches out to a friend and, you know, contact that person. this is the kind of i'm sorry about what i'm going to do, and it's not your fault, but i want you to understand. note. the video is something completely different. that's a more aggressive posture, which is i am broadcasting my taking of revenge against those who i feel wronged me. and i also want the world to see me as this strong figure. of course, it is not a strong figure who does something like that. not even close, but it's all about rewriting their life story. you

know, these are people who are engaged in failure and disappointment and feeling marginalized. and this is their way of rewriting that story and literally broadcasting it. which is why, by the way, people and i'm one of them choose not to say the names of the shooters show the pictures of the shooter as little as possible so as not to give them an essence. what they were asking for. this shooter stopped firing for a minute and a half in the middle. why do you think that was was it to give the cops a chance to arrive? can't we can't get into his head at this point, but i think you hit on it, which is i have let's choreographic because the victims don't get to choreograph this. they are set upon immediately. the police don't get to choreographic. they get to train for it, but they always walk in in the middle. it's unnecessary fact in the active shooter dynamic it's the shooter who gets to choreographic and his choreography is live streaming and broadcasting. first i'm taking revenge on those who i feel wronged me. there's a conference room with the senior leadership of the bank that's firing me, and i'm taking that out on them. now there's the

pause and waiting for the police . this is almost certainly classic suicide by cop. i'm going to wait for them to come. i'm going to engage i'm going to shoot at them. they're going to shoot at me. unfortunately it didn't just result in his death , and not just the deaths of everybody had already killed but of a brave young police officer only 10 days on the job who comes through into that field of fire the important people here or the ones who did not make it the lives that were lost also the officers who responded so quickly, any sense of how these officers and again they were there. what in three minutes how they're doing today? so they're obviously having their own hard time. i mean, there's not just the trauma of walking into a field of gunfire with an individual with an assault weapon. but there's that field training officer who has this police officer. his job is to train this police officer on the street until he is able to fly on his own only 10 days on the job. who who runs into the

danger with his trainee. and of course, he feels terrible about that probably feels responsible for that, although he did nothing wrong, except you know what the citizens of louisville ask of him and his young trainee and you know that trainee is kind of traumatic brain injury is still in the hospital still being assessed for how he will come out of this and what he will have, and his training officer is still going through that natural second guessing of you know what it could have should have, but i mean, they both did exactly what they swore under oath to do. these are human feelings. they are no doubt having and the communities surrounding them with love and support at this moment, john, both heroes. absolutely. thank you so much for being with us again. we are expecting a news conference in just a little bit. sarah a sobering news survey from the kaiser family foundation found that 54% of u. s. adults have either personally experienced or had a family member experience. gun violence

that includes witnessing a shooting being threatened by a gun or being injured or killed by a gun. losing loved ones to gun violence is more common among black adults and white adults. there are two times as likely to have a family member died from a shooting. cnn chief medical correspondent dr sanjay gupta is joining us now, sanjay there have already been 146 mass shootings that doesn't count all the other shootings. that go on throughout the year so far this year, the harm and the fear of harm is real. for so many people . that survey really pointing that out. what more can you tell us about the survey? yeah i think you're absolutely right, sir. i mean, this. this sort of gives us an idea of the psyche of the citizens of this country around the issue of gun violence, as you well know, first of all, guns kill more children and teenagers than anything else in this country. it's hard to believe more than

car accidents. these kids and young people are dying from gun violence, so it's a real concern what they tried to get at. obviously in this survey was, what is the impact on the psychology? really? how often are people consumed are thinking about this? and as you point out that the how much we've actually witnessed is a big part of this 17% of people have seen someone get shot. think about that, sarah. one in five people have seen someone get shot. it's really horrific. 19% off family member killed by a gun suicide or homicide, and 21% threatened by again and then the next question they ask is so how how often? are you fearful of this issue, then? sometimes 40% all the way to every day 8% of people every day. think about this issue for themselves, so it's sort of a snapshot into what is a pretty uniquely american phenomenon. those numbers are really stunning that 17% really hits you in the gut that 70% of people have have this experience that let me ask

you about the 41% of the survey says, um, household live with a gun. the survey saying that it doesn't surprise me. i grew up in a rural part of this country where they were prolific people had them gun racks were still, uh thing but this is a big number. we know there are more guns than there are human beings in the united states. what does it say about how these guns, though, are stored. yeah and let me just point out there are more guns being acquired, and more people owning again. so it's not just the same people buying more and more guns. there are more people who are acquiring these guns. but you're right. this isn't about ownership. this is about storage. that's what they tried to get out in this particular survey, and they were just trying to say, look, are we storing these safely? because so many of these stories that you've covered that i've covered are about these guns that were acquired, sometimes in the own home. but weren't stored correctly. so 36% of the time more than a third of the time they were stored loaded, not supposed to happen, 44% they're stored, unlocked and 52% of the

time they were stored with ammunition. those are all basic sort of know knows when it comes to storage, and this was again i think that the survey tried to get at. if we're not talking about owning guns are we at least storing them in a safe manner and the answer more than that is no that could be a huge game changer. really if the storage is better, because those numbers are disturbing. you mentioned this earlier and it is a number that i think for all of us shocked us that that gun violence is the number one killer of our children in this country. can you give us more details about what this survey revealed? yeah i mean, as much as we're fearful of these guns overall for adults, or even more fearful when it comes to our children, i think no surprise. one of the things that stuck out to me was 20% of families have thought about changing schools for their kids because of the concerns of gun violence, but you can see the numbers there sometimes worried about 38% all the way to every day thinking about this issue. 12% of people

and again, these are surveys. it may be even higher than that. in the wake of a shooting sarah, as you might guess, for a period of time and in a difference in time , but for a period of time, i think every parent in the country is worried about school shootings, so it waxes and wanes , but it's increasingly trend wise becoming a problem. sanjay gupta. thank you so much for sharing. this is really disturbing some of these details and the fears that parents have the fears are real because this does keep happening, and i know he is frozen right there. but that was sanjay's voice. okay right now, president biden is on the way to northern ireland. we're live from belfast as they prepare to mark the anniversary of the good friday agreement. but there are also facing new security threats. the very same time the tennessee lawmaker removed from office and quickly gets the seat back. what he says this means now for the gun reform gun reform that that sparked his protest and a week classified document reportedly

over the last several days. what are they saying about the president's arrive? we've done our best. yeah look, there's two big parts to this trip, john first here will arrive here tonight in northern ireland in belfast as you mentioned to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the good friday peace agreement. now there is peace here, but it is an uneasy one. we have seen the terror threat level escalate here recently and, of course, the power sharing government structure that was set up under the good friday agreement where both sides the two communities here that unionists republicans. clicks. and protestants work to get her in government that is not functioning right now, so he will speak here tomorrow and then he will make his way south to the republic of ireland, where that is really going to be quite a personal trip. it was 60 years ago that jfk came to ireland to find his relatives and really started a tradition of american presidents coming here to track to find their

ancestral home. we caught up with some of biden's younger cousins as a few days ago. have a listen. girls how does it feel to be related to the president? and it's very exciting? yeah president, have you met him before? yes twice. what did he say? chair? he's just he was just eating our chips. and when, when the fancy meals came out, he just wanted the chips and chicken nuggets problems. irish roots. um we have had other presidents. this president is more important. i think to ireland's than the rest of them. and so there's a real sense here that biden really does have a true connection to ireland. he's going to be visiting relatives on both sides of the country and county loud and in county mayo, where he is due to deliver a speech in front of the cathedral in ballon. ah on friday night,

john hide your chips. i mean, that's the lesson here if joe biden is coming to town hide those chips and nuggets. tony o sullivan in belfast. thank you. terrific reporting from there. we really appreciate it. kate. documents suggest egypt's president ordered military officials there to secretly supply rockets to russia and keep it secret from the west. the washington post was the first to report on this document seen as natasha bertrand has more on this for us, natasha egypt is now responding to this. what are they saying? yeah, well, egypt is categorically denying this report in the washington post that cites a leaked us intelligence documents claiming that egypt's president ordered his subordinates to start to produce up to 40,000 rockets to be sent to russia, ostensibly to be used for the war in ukraine. now, we don't actually have this document independently, we are learning, though, that it does appear to be part of a broader set of

documents that have been leaked online over the last month or so, and they appear consistent with the kind of intelligence that has been leaked in recent days here, or at least i should say i have surfaced in recent days. but look this document if true, if there were what were these conversations going on for egypt to provide lethal aid to russia at this moment, it would be potentially explosive, of course, because egypt is one of the u. s s closest allies. in the middle east, and it would suggest that egypt now is getting closer to the russians, when in fact publicly they have tried to maintain a more neutral position. when it comes to the war in ukraine now, it would also be kind of a slap in the face to the u. s. government of course, because secretary of state antony blinken was actually just in egypt at the end of january, talking about the us egyptian partnership and how important it is for them to stand together in the phase of russian aggression in ukraine. obviously, this would be a very this would cause a big fracture in the relationship. if egypt didn't move forward with this

kind of production, we should note that a u. s official did tell the washington post that there are no signs at this moment that egypt has actually gone through with this lethal aid to russia, kate alright, much, much more to learn. as with all these documents, natasha, thank you so much for that reporting and also because egypt receives tons of aid from the united states. this pile of dirty laundry is getting bigger and bigger around the world as we learn more revelations from these documents. thanks so much minutes from now, police in louisville are expected to give an update on their investigation into the mass shooting at a bank that killed five people and wounded several others. we're standing by for that. and in nashville and ousted lawmaker has his job back what he is vowing to do now. asking the right question can greatly impact your future. are you qualifiedd to do this? especialy when it comes to your finances? are e you a certified financial planner, cfp professional professionals are committed to acting in your best interest.

pearson. they were kicked out. gloria johnson was not cnn's isabella rossellini is in nashville. representative jones has his seat again. what does he say he's going to do with it now. jonah good afternoon here before i get into what representative justin jones is doing now with his newly established seat again at the statehouse. let me first tell you that we did hear from the governor bill lee here in the last hour, and he is announcing that in response to the shooting at the covenant school that killed six, including 39 year old students, he is now going to sign an executive order aimed at strengthening background checks when it comes to gun purchases. he's also calling on lawmakers. the general assembly. okay? essentially pass a red flag law . this is a law that would allow judges to cease firearms away from people who are deemed to be a threat to themselves or to others now, justin jones, he

tells us that he plans to file legislation on gun reform that because he's a new member, he can now file 15 bills and every single bill will deal. with gun reform. he intends to file those bills by the end of the week shortly after that council vote to give him back his job. yesterday he gave a fiery speech. listen. marcy back the people's house, setting a resounding message that democracy will not be killed in the comfort of silence. there we send a clear message to speaker cameron sexton that the people will not allow his his crimes against democracy that happened without challenge. and jones doesn't have a lot of time here because the legislative session ends here in about three weeks. meanwhile we're looking to tomorrow. that's another critical vote out of shelby county. we could see tomorrow, the tennessee three being

reunited at the statehouse. that is because the commission of shelby county there will vote on the next steps whether to give pearson justin pearson his seat back will be on the lookout for that, john. how tumultuous can it get in nashville? thank you so much as a belfry reporting. we'll check back in with you again soon. sarah this morning. a grand jury in virginia has indicted the mother of the six year old who shot his first grade teacher back in january. data. taylor has been charged with felony child neglect and misdemeanor reckless leaving a loaded firearm. so as to endanger a child that is the legal verbiage there. that's according to prosecutors, who say this comes after a thorough investigation by the newport news police. and the commonwealth attorney office. joining me now for more on this is defense and trial attorney mr merah's misty, can you give us a sense of the charges? there's a lot of sort of legalese there. but what are we looking at here ? and this is interesting, because, remember, the person that pulled the trigger is a six

year old and it's very difficult under the law to hold parents culpable for the acts of their children. however in this case, it's a bit of a different argument. the first felony charge is a child neglect. charge it means that the mother had an act or omission relating to the care of her child. that resulted in reckless disregard for human life. now the second charge is a misdemeanor charge that relates to how the gun was maintained in the home, and it was accessible to this six year old and it resulted in a risk of life or limb to a child under 14. so couple of things here virginia, that statute is a bit different than you see across the country because it doesn't specify how the gun has to be maintained. it doesn't say locked in a safe, it just says it has to be not accessible. and then the other component of it is most of the time you see these charges brought against parents when the child themselves is injured after accessing a firearm, so the legal theory here is a bit different the way that it's

being used to prosecute the mother. for the injury to the teacher. it's interesting that you say that in virginia, there is no specifics on exactly how a gun should be stored. in other words, some statutes might say they should not have bullets in then they shouldn't be loaded or they should be in a lockbox. but that is not the case in virginia so she could arguing and she is innocent until proven guilty. she could argue, look, i did put it in a place. i have no idea. how he was able to get it. correct yes. so in places like massachusetts, oregon, many states across the country very specific how a gun needs to be maintained. now she's already said she had a trigger lock on the gun and that the gun was on a top shelf in her closet. so that's what we anticipate her defense. whether or not that's true, that will be a finding of fact for the jury, but the questions i would be asking a trial. well did you know? has he accessed that closet before? was he able to unlock that trigger lock? it required a key. did he know where the key is? had you seen him? actually access that done in the past, a lot is going to be hinging on how this gun

was maintained. whether or not it was known that the child could access it and how that actually happened. and so that's really what this case is going to be about. you know, this has got to be hard for everybody involved. i mean, i know the six year old was not charged, correct because he's only six years old. right so in virginia, the juvenile justice system is for children, 11 and over. so while there's no statute, precluding this charging a six year old under that system, there's an infancy defense. it means that a child of that age cannot have the mindset. to develop the element of intent necessary to charge with a crime. but there will be some. i'm thinking likely some social services that might be court ordered. there were at the beginning of this case, and that may go on because clearly there's an issue and the child does need some help. it was terrifying for the teachers and for the for the teacher and for the students and some of the evidence that we heard from law enforcement was that they do believe he knew exactly who he was. he was shooting. this was an accidental um so i want to ask you about a lot. aussie

that's being brought by the teacher. she was shot. i mean, it had to have been a terrifying moment, not only for her, but she's trying to also save her children. um she is now going forward and saying, look, this isn't just about you know the mom in this case or even the child in this case, but i was not protected by the school administration. tell me more about this. yes sarah. so i'm not surprised that this lawsuit came down the pike. so first of all in the criminal side, there's still a grand jury convening to identify whether or not there might be criminal culpability. that's one aspect. but we're talking about the civil suit. now. the civil suit says that there were actually three opportunities where there were warnings that this child had a gun and the school failed to act. the school failed to search him didn't call. the police didn't remove him from the classroom. they had ample opportunity to. they failed to do so. so this is really what we call a negligence case, meaning that they failed to act and that would result in liability. and i think for the teacher's perspective, not only does it relate to this picula classroom

, but it's a lesson learned on the broader sense about how to handle these types of cases to call in law enforcement when there's even a question mark to avoid a tragedy. luckily here it stopped with just this horrific injury and obviously the fear, but this could have been a much worse situation and that's what this lawsuit is going to look into and dig into on the facts. thank you for all this. we have some live breaking information. we're going to go to louisville. now we're there was yet another shooting a mass shooting. let's listen in. thank you all for joining us. yesterday was an incredibly difficult day. for all of us in louisville. i want to start by saying thanks again. everyone who pulled together. to get through yesterday. and to continue on today. in the days ahead. first that starts with

death means another family and morning and adds yet another layer of tragedy to this moment. i want to briefly read a statement from old national bank ceo jim ryan, who has asked me to read this on behalf of him and his colleagues at old national quote. there are no words to adequately describe the sadness and devastation that are old national families experiencing as we grieve the tragic loss of our team members and pray for the recovery of all those who were injured. obviously this is an incredible difficult situation. and our entire focus is on making sure that everyone affected has the support and assistance they need. on behalf of everyone and old national i also want to acknowledge and thank louisville law enforcement, the medical community and state and local officials for their incredible response to this tragedy. and

finally we ask you to please continue to pray. for all those affected. again that was old national ceo. jim ryan. our thoughts are with the families who have lost loved ones, and we're also thinking and praying for the people who were injured in this attack. including our police officers. so for an update on their condition i first would like to welcome dr jason smith. chief medical officer at ufl health, dr smith. thank you, mayor. so from you, of all health, and you have our hospital, i want to send my prayers and thoughts out to all the families that were affected. yesterday both those we treated and unfortunately those we did not an update from us. we still have four patients in the hospital to remain in the icu officer will still, officer wilkes still remains in critical

condition, but we have been able to upgrade our other patient in the icu to stable condition, the other to remain in the hospital being treated for non life threatening injuries. i want to thank my team again. the emergency department physicians and nurses my trauma team at u of our health and all those that supported us yesterday. i also want to send a thank you to the american red cross. we used 100 and 70 units of blood yesterday to treat these victims which far outstrips our hospital capacity and their ability to get us that blood to save those lives help save those lives, so i want to thank them for that. i'll be happy to take questions at the end of the press conference. thank you. thank you, dr smith. now for a brief update on some information about things that we've learned about the events and the assailant yesterday. i like to call on our chief of police, jacqueline gwyn villarroel. chief. to the mayor

and everyone who was in attendance on today. we have learned that the suspect in this incident was a current employee with no national bank. we have also learned that he purchased the weapon used in this tragic incident on yesterday on april, the fourth he purchased the weapon legally from one of the local dealerships here in louisville. we have executed a search warrant on his residence and we have recovered items and we cannot get into specific details on what we recover at this time, because again the investigation is ongoing and we want to make sure that we're providing accurate information the family deserves that, and the community deserves that. we also would like to share that later on this afternoon. we will be releasing body worn camera footage of the incident. and so that information at the time will be released to you and the

location, so everyone will be privy to that information. thank you. thank you, chief. we need to acknowledge that a tragedy like this affects everyone. i've already talked about some of our first responders and colleagues in metro government. thanks also to the faith leaders and social workers and mental health professionals. who provided comfort and counsel. two people in understandable distress. i also want to acknowledge the teachers and parents. who had to have difficult conversations. with our children throughout our community. about this inexplicable. act of violence and cruelty. we're all feeling shaken by this and scared. and angry. and a lot of other things, too. it's important that

we come together as a community to process this tragedy in particular. but not just this tragedy. because the reality is that we have already lost 40 people to gun violence in louisville this year. including another young man yesterday. just a few blocks away from old national bank. shortly after this tragic incident happened. yeah that was a separate targeted incident. but the result was the same. needless tragedy. needless loss of life. in order to help the people of our community of our great city come together and deal with this outbreak of tragedies. to grieve. to pray. to unite. i'd like to announce that we are going to be hosting a vigil tomorrow wednesday. at five pm

the muhammad ali center plaza. this vigil will be to acknowledge the wounds physical and emotional that gun violence leaves behind. it will be an interfaith opportunity for our entire community. to come together. to grieve. to hell. to begin to move forward. we also know that wednesday is a night of worship. for many across our city. and so working with paul callan and his colleagues at the office of safe and healthy neighborhood, we will be having grief counselors. at over a dozen churches throughout our city that have regularly scheduled worship on wednesday evenings as well. we invite the entire community. to join us at the muhammad ali center. tomorrow at five pm. and also if you prefer to worship on your own again, we will be providing

some grief counselors and we'll have a list of those churches where members of often safe office of safe and healthy neighborhood would be located by mid afternoon today. and i want to thank the muhammad ali center. for hosting this vigil on such short notice. one really loving thing. in the midst of this tragedy. has been the sheer number of people locally and around the world who have sown shown such love and support for our city. it means a lot to my wife, rachel and i we are deeply grateful. on behalf of everyone in louisville. for those who have reached out from beyond and within our city borders. there are so many people who want to do something. who have offered to help who see this nightmare unfold and want to make it better somehow. we love and appreciate that so much. for

those of you who are looking to take action right now. to show your support for the first responders who are trying to save lives and for the victims of gun violence. one great way to do that. is to donate blood. according to johns hopkins university. gunshot wounds require much more blood than other types of industry injuries . you just heard dr smith talk about the amount of blood that was needed and used yesterday. he mentioned his thanks to the red cross. we're very thankful to the american red cross. so we encourage people to make an appointment to donate. at red red cross blood .org. that's red cross blood .org we encourage everyone to donate blood, and if you can't there are other ways to support the american red cross with donations or your time. next i'd like to call up

steve cunanan, whose ceo of the louisville red cross, steve thank you. our thoughts and our deepest sympathies are with the people of louisville and those that have been impacted by monday's tragic shooting at the request of local emergency management on monday, the american red cross louisville area chapter in its volunteers help support a family reunification center. the red cross continues to work with local authorities. and their community partners and is helping to provide aid and assistance to those people affected by this tragedy at this time, the american red cross is working closely with the university of louisville hospital. and as dr smith has mentioned, it has provided we have provided more than 170 units of blood products to the hospital to treat those that have been affected by this. the red cross stands ready to

provide additional blood and blood products upon the request. and as the mayor has mentioned, volunteer blood donors are needed each and every day to help save lives. this tragedy illustrates that it's the blood that's already on hand and on the shelves that helps during an emergency. type o negative is the universal blood type. and that is what the emergency room personnel use and what they reach for when it's time when they don't have time to determine blood type, and that's one of the types that is needed. most. the american red cross is grateful to all those donors who generously glib blood throughout this country. thank you. thank you, steve. to all you and all of your colleagues, the red cross. there's one more topic. that we need to talk about today. and that's guns. yesterday's tragedy. brings us

to 40 people. who have been shot to death. this year. in our city. that level of gun violence is beyond horrific. and it's beyond anything we can and will accept in our community. our police did a heroic job yesterday. and every day. and we are already doing a lot. to reduce the amount of gun violence in our city. and make louisville safer. we're investing in neighborhoods and in people who have been overlooked for generations, so every child has an opportunity to succeed and pursue their hopes and dreams. we're going to invest more in mental health care. we're working to make universal pre k reality. workforce development initiatives. for young and older adults alike. these are all important. these are all also

long term solutions. we have to take action now. we need short term action. to end this gun violence epidemic now so fewer people die on our streets. in our banks. there are schools. and in our churches. and for that we need help. we need help from our friends and frankfurt. and help from our friends in washington, d c. this isn't about partisan politics. this is about life. and death. this is about preventing tragedies. you may think this will never happen to you. never happened to any of your friends. our loved ones. i used to think that. the sad truth is that now no one in our city no. one in our state. no

one in our country has that luxury anymore. last year. i survived a workplace shooting. and now yesterday i've lost a very close friend. in another workplace shooting. five more families have lost a loved one. it has happened in louisville. it could happen in paducah in pikeville. lovington. this is happening in america everywhere. and will keep happening until we say enough. and take meaningful action. congressman mcgarvey will talk about some things at the federal level. so i'll address what we can do at the state level. i have two requests today. for every kentucky state senator. and every kentucky state representative who wants

to join me in reducing the amount of gun violence in louisville. first. if you support police officers like officer wilt. an officer galloway. who heroically ran into a barrage of fire from awaiting assailant with an assault rifle. if you support local decision making to address local issues. if you want to help our state's largest city thrive. please. give louisville the autonomy to deal with our unique gun violence epidemic. let us the people of louisville. make our own choices about how we reduce gun violence in our city. other communities should be able to make the policies that work for them. let us implement policies that work for us. please change our state law.

to let louisville make its own decisions about reducing the amount of illegal guns on our streets. and gun violence that is killing far too many people. in mass shootings. an individual shootings. in any shootings. let me be clear. i don't care about finger pointing. i don't care about blame. i don't care about politics. i'm only interested in working together. with our state legislators to take meaningful action. to save lives. to prevent more tragic injuries. and more death. arguing is not a strategy. doing nothing. is not a strategy. it's not a solution. the second thing. and to those in the national media that are

joining us here today. this may be even more shocking than it is to those of us locally who know this and are dealing with this. but under current kentucky law the assault rifle. that was used to murder five of our neighbors and shoot at rescuing police officers will one day be auctioned off? think about that. that murder weapon will be back on the streets one day. under kentucky's current law. my administration has already taken action to remove the firing pin before turning confiscated guns over to the state. because that's all that the current law allows us to do that's not enough. it's time to change this law and let us destroy illegal guns and destroy the guns that have been used to kill our friends and kill our neighbors.

i know every member of the state legislature. like everyone else in our state and in our country. is horrified by what we saw yesterday. by what we see in other cities around the country. none of us wants this to happen again. none of us wants this to happen in our neighborhood. but it will keep happening. that's why we have to do more than what we've already done. let's change the state laws. that would make me a criminal. for trying to hard to stop the real evil criminals who are taking other people's lives and who are eager to make a spectacle of mass murder. the laws we have now are enabling violence and murder. it's time to change those laws. to save lives and keep our people safe. to those in the

kentucky state legislature. let's work. together. i look forward to working with you. on this. now. i'd like to welcome congressman morgen mcgarvey. morning. thank you to mayor greenberg and your team. rachel for your leadership. through this. i'm not here today simply as a congressman. i am a lifelong louisville, ian. born and raised here. and my heart hurts. i got the call yesterday when i was in washington, d. c and we didn't know exactly what had happened yet. but you've got that feeling of dread. that

something's wrong. this isn't normal. and then more information starts coming out. and the heartbreak begins. and the names start coming out. we know them. and their friends. because this is louisville. louisville, kentucky. the biggest small town in america. we call it louisville, ege. because really, and truly everybody knows everybody. we are not seven degrees of separation from people in louisville. we are 1 degrees of separation from people in louisville and we ask you what school did you go to? we mean high school. i went to manual high school. my mom went to wagner high school. approval is my home. and we are hurting.
