Uvalde families won’t get back the loved ones they lost on 5/24. And yet they’re out there, facing down members of Congress, reliving the most painful moment of their lives, pushing against the odds to help spare other families this suffering.

They were also powerless against lawmakers who consistently fail to act. “My oath as a doctor,” he told them, “means that I signed up to save lives. I do my job. I guess it turns out that I am here to plead. To beg. To please, please do yours.”

She was joined by Uvalde pediatrician Roy Guerrero who testified that kids like Tess were powerless against a man with a weapon that had the power to blast massive holes through their bodies, rendering them unrecognizable but for the shoes that they were wearing.

Beto O'Rourke

If Congress or the Texas Legislature had raised the age of purchase for an AR-15, her sister Tess might still be alive. (The Uvalde shooter patiently waited until he turned 18-years old, after which he bought two AR-15s along with 1,600 rounds of ammunition.)
