Durbin Meets With March Fourth To Discuss Gun Violence Prevention Efforts

Press Release

"Next week marks one year since the horrific mass shooting at a Fourth of July parade in Highland Park. That gunman scarred a community for a lifetime, shooting more than 80 rounds in 60 seconds, at what was supposed to be a joyful community celebration of America's beauty and her freedoms. Mass shootings are a uniquely American experience, and it doesn't have to be this way. Since that day, Illinoisans have mobilized and garnered a swell of grassroots support for gun violence prevention policies. I'm grateful for community leaders and members of March Fourth for their efforts as we work to address gun violence as a major public health threat,"
