It’s #NationalGunViolenceAwarenessDay & I #WearOrange because 96 people are shot and killed in an average day in America & for every 1 person killed with guns, 2 more are injured. As 9-year-old Yolanda Renee King said @ #marchforourlives, “I have a dream that enough is enough.”

We are way beyond “enough is enough.” More must be done immediately to keep our children safe. Please read @NPTAPresident and @txstatepta statement on the shooting today at #SantaFeHighSchool: https://t.co/TD8D5fgOnI #EndGunViolence
I support my colleagues Reps. @ShevrinJones + @DuranForFlorida in their calls for a special session to increase funding for public schools. A 47 cent increase in per pupil spending is a joke (but it's what @FLGovScott signed into law.) We must do better! https://t.co/eI4Gvkw34D
A 47 cent increase in per pupil spending is an insult to our students. Today, I am proud to work with Rep. @DuranForFlorida to get the signatures from House and Senate members to have the Sec of State to poll the legislature for a Special session. #FlaPol#Sayfie
