Sky View High School Walkout - Smithfield Utah

Start: Wednesday, March 14, 201810:00 AM

End: Wednesday, March 14, 201810:15 AM

What?

A mass school walkout to protest Congress’ inaction to do more than tweet thoughts and prayers after school shootings. We demand Congress pass sensible legislation that would help keep our loved ones safe from gun violence at school and beyond. We must take action so Congress will take action to pass federal gun reform legislation that will reduce mass shootings and save the lives of students and teachers. Join us in saying #ENOUGH!

Why?

Students and staff have the right to teach and learn in an environment free from the worry of being gunned down in their classrooms.

Parents have the right to send their kids to school in the mornings and see them home alive at the end of the day.

DEMAND SENSIBLE SOLUTIONS FROM CONGRESS:

+ Ban Assault Weapons and High Capacity Magazines

+ Expand Background Checks to All Gun Sales and Have Longer Waiting Periods

+ Pass Federal Gun Violence Protective Orders

+ Fund Government Research on Gun Violence

Who?

Students, Teachers, School Administrators, Parents, Everyone

Where?

Schools and Universities across America.
