I stand with students, teachers & parents participating in #MarchForOurLives rallies on LI, in DC & across the country. This is a young people's movement. They're demanding commonsense legislation to reduce gun violence. They're right. Let's get it done. https://t.co/r6RQr9btOT
To the students in Maryland and across the country who are marching today—I have a simple message for you: know your power. You are not only the future—you are the conscience of America and you can change the direction of our nation. #MarchforOurLives
