of this challenge, but i wanted to start, of course, with the victims who were killed at marjory stoneman douglas high school on february 14. i'll make reference to the individuals specifically more a little later. we're remembering them today. we're thinking of their families. certainly thinking as well of the surviving students and praying for the families, the victims and the survivors. i can't imagine what these families are dealing with right now just days after this tragedy. there are a lot of ways to express grief, a lot of ways to somehow articulate the loss. i can't do it adequately, so i'll turn to, in this case a songwriter, a recording artist, bruce springsteen. we all know a good bit of his music, but years ago he wrote after 9/11, the lyrics to a song entitled "you're missing." of course it has application for those who have loved and lost, especially in this instance, so tragically. bruce springsteen's words go in part like this: the refrain of song is you're missing. at one point he says you're missing when i turn off the lights. you're missing when i close my eyes. and you're mis

let's don't let what happened at marjory stoneman douglas high fade into a memory like so many other tragedies. let's take this tragedy and make it a pivotal moment in our nation's history. let's don't have to go through these massacres again. let's let this be the last one. let's come together as a senate and do what needs to be done. let's do what so many before us have been unable to do. let's take action. let this massacre be the last massacre. mr. president, i yield the floor. a senator: mr. president. the presiding officer: the senator from new jersey. mr. menendez: mr. president, i appreciate the senior senator from florida and the grief that he represents through the state coming to the floor and speaking about the lives that were lost and the clarion call for us to act. i come to the floor today because two weeks ago, a weapon of mass murder was once again used to commit mass murder in an american school. and once again, our hearts are heavy with a grief that has become too routine. and once again, the gun lobby says that we are powerless to do anything about it. but this ti

that march for our lives protest was led by the students of marjorie stoneman douglas high school in florida with seventeen lives were lost and gonzales survived the shooting and faced the crowd in tearful silence for six minutes the time it took the gunman to take so many lives you know i never could comprehend the devastating aftermath or how far this would reach our where this would go. for those who still can't comprehend because they refuse to i'll tell you where i went right into the ground six feet deep and my. back. protesters came from across the country to show their support many here have been touched by the plague of gun violence and of long campaigned for change i just think it would be great if they enacted gun regulation that kept weapons of war off of our streets i have a young son who is about to be in can their gardening so making sure that the places that he goes actually safe and secure is among the speakers eleven year old niamh wilder he's pledged to take political action at such a young age resonated with many my things and i might still be eleven and we might

a 17-year-old senior from marjory stoneman douglas.head of tomorrow's march, the questions many are wondering is will this prompt a change in national gun laws. to talk more about this i'm joined by former nra lobbyist richard feldman, author of the book "ricochet" and said the nra is obsessed with wielding political power and scare mon r mongering but a big believer in second amendment rights. but not many students tell me they have an issue with the second amendment or they would like to see the second amendment go away or like to see people's guns taken away. they literally don't want to be fearful in school or in the case of the chicago kids in their community. i think this is a message that pro-second amendment gun owners can get behind. >> i agree. who wants to be fearful of the bad guys out there. whether they are crazy or intentionally criminals, nobody wants to face somebody with a gun that is after you. we're all in the same boat. but when someone like joe biden demonizes the nra, he's playing politics. the nra isn't the prob

the marjory stoneman douglas act certainly isn't perfect. the idea of getting more guns into schools to reduce gun violence seems to be a thought end m more tragedy. but it makes it a great step in the right direction. and it proves what i tell my students is true, their actions can change the world. i got into teaching bausz i wanted to inspire students but now they are inspiring me. the issues surrounding mass shootings in this country are complex and to pretend otherwise is naive and put the general public and particularly our children in dang remember. people have suggested its mental health and school issue, i agree with both of those statements, need more help with mentally ill but better quality of life for thousands of people who suffer from these mental illnesses. we do need to increase safety in our schools to protect children against those who would want to harm they. but to say that the issue of mass shootings isn't also a gun issue is absurd. i cannot imagine a scenario in which nikolas cruz could have come to my school armed wi
