The attack has reignited a national conversation about gun violence, spearheaded by many of the survivors of the shooting.

Stoneman Douglas students have been outspoken about their desire for gun reform and have specifically targeted the National Rifle Association and Republican politicians backed by the gun group.

The “March for Our Lives” rally against gun violence is scheduled for March 24 and will be held in Washington, D.C., and a number of other cities.

DeVos had signaled she’s open to allowing guns in schools but said it’s up to the states and local communities to decide.
