your screens here is cameron palmer. he owns a restaurant in half a day. his son, carter, chose a stuffed animal to put at the memorial today. one of the workers actually worked at the mushroom farm and said he witnessed the shooting. >> i just have him a big hug. there is a language barrier there, too but hugs are universal. we are a good time place. to have this cannot just hits hard. >> reporter: with the union people personally or not, it hits home. this was revealing for him. it reveals the conditions that the people in the farmworker community live under. we spoke with someone who knew the victims, marciano martinez. spent christmas with them two years ago. >> [ speaking non-english ] >> good friends with catalina and said she would see him around, too. she was kind and

people here are hurting. >> [ speaking non-english ] >> that is what we have been hearing a lot in this community. this community is very close. whether you knew somebody or not. it's a very close community. as far as the organization, a nonprofit a.l.a.s. are taking donations to the families of victims staying in hotels right now. they will be having an altar and inviting people to join them later this afternoon. vice president kamala harris is on the way to the area as monterey park shooting left 11 people there. >> they paid their respects to victims of the mass shooting.

joining us. i've been around a long time. i remember columbine. i was on air all night long during the tragedy. the horror of the one october shooting. the massacre and lost vegas. this cannot become our new normal area what is the disconnect here? why, when the governor of the state says that the solutions are here in front of us, why can we not those realized? >> the governor is right. the strot gun olen prevention laws on the books. painfully, it not enough. unless the rules are applied across the country, then they will come into the state. we've got to be real about this. part of my great distress and leaving congress was it is an inept institution right now representing the american people. they represent a small

group of people who control them like they are puppets. universal background checks supported by everyone. gun owners and non-gun owners alike. yet we cannot at that past. >> the issue has become politicized. governor gavin newsom did not shy away. he called out republicans. specifically kevin mccarthy on what he calls in action on gun safety reform. let's get your take on this. first, let's hear what the governor had to say. >> >> got to call some folks out. i'm still waiting for kevin mccarthy, the leader of the house of representatives, who supposes to represent the people of the state of california. we have not heard one word from him. not as monterey park. not with what happened here. not one word. >> your reaction to the governor's anger calling out

kevin mccarthy. they, assuming you mean republicans, a small group of people. who is the small group of people and what do you think about what the governor said? >> the governor is laying it at the foot of kevin mccarthy, in part, because kevin is from california. the problem exists not just in the house. we have been successful in passing any number of gun violence prevention bills in the last congress. we passed and assault weapons ban. we passed universal background checks. stalled in the senate where there is not the ability to bring up a bill unless you have 60 votes because of the filibuster. we were in a position still are in a position where we can get rid of the filibuster. joe manchin and christensen emma you are really siding with the republicans in that regard. as

long as they can control the actual results, we will not get this done. mind you, this is as you have put, normal. any number of countries. the eu has 400 million people. the united states has 330 million people. the last time i looked, and this was in 2020, there were 2500 deaths from gun violence in the eu. in the entire european continent. in the united states in that time, 35,000 deaths. it is not safe to be anywhere anymore. >> sorry. the governor also talked about how california is working towards solutions. he does not the support he needs and i think this is what you are saying there. let's listen to his comments on that area >> we are not going to back away from our resolve. we know it saves lives, period, full

stop. that bears no contrary evidence. it's incredibly important that people want to solve this. take a look at what california has done. we are not isolated. many parts, one body. you are only as good as your weakest links. >> is a community, where's the hope? we see that the tragedies happen and we hear that they are back and forth in congress. the various positions. and it's easy to say, if all of these people above me are fighting and we, down on the ground, are dying, where is the hope? >> the hope is in getting a majority in the senate to get rid of the filibuster so that majority rules will be in effect, rather than a 60 vote margin. it is restoring democrats. i hate to be partisan about this. but under a republican congress in the house, you're not even going to get a bill that is going to be

taken up in the house. there are moderate republicans. there is a handful of them. but unless the speaker is willing to have a bill come to the floor, the likelihood of being able to have it dislodged from committee is very slim. the next two years, don't count on much of anything happening. that's the reality. until the american people rise up on a level that puts a backbone and some of these senators who feel that they cannot cross the nra or any number of groups that exist in this country, we will continue to see this bloodshed. it pains me in ways that only a few of us experience. there are still a minority of people who are victims of gun violence to survive. but think of the children who have done these

drills. it's now part of their existence. it's just wrong on so many levels. >> armor u.s. congresswoman jackie speier, we appreciate you coming on to talk. it is sometimes hard to get people to come on air to talk about these things. we know as a former victim of gun violence or self and someone who has seen the laws of wrangling back and worth, we appreciate your perspective this afternoon. thank you so, so much. i did reach out to house peter mccarthy's office. we did get a response. he did express condolences for the shooting ev afr i d twitter to come on and talk about the issue such as the former congresswoman did. as always, with this broadcast emma the invitation is there. and we hope to talk to you, speaker mccarthy. people come across the bay area are stepping up. people arguing about this issue. the group farmworker caravan is
