Lawmakers Speak Out As Reactions Pour in to Texas Mass Shooting | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

Former Acting Deputy Secretary for Homeland Security and National Chairman of the Election Transparency Initiative, Ken Cuccinelli, joins to share his reaction to the horrific shooting in Uvalde, Texas that took the lives of 19 children and 2 adults. In his initial response to the shooting President Joe Biden said, "Why are we willing to live with this carnage? Why do we keep letting this happen?" A lot of lawmakers are also speaking out. Cuccinelli gives us his response to that. Cuccinelli is a big advocate of getting guns out of the hands of the mentally ill. There's a lot that we are still learning about this gunman and his motive, but apparently he did buy the guns legally. Cuccinelli discusses why he thinks we are seeing so many mass shootings and what he would like to see done. On another note, Tuesday was primary day for a number of states, including Georgia. Georgia has been the focus of controversy over questions about both voting rights and election integrity. The national chairman of the Election Transparency Initiative has been following this closely and fills us in on his thoughts on the turnout.
