John —

It's been seven years since Connecticut lost twenty-six lives to a senseless act of gun violence in Sandy Hook.

We lost six adults and twenty children that day. Today, those children would be in 8th grade, and those educators would be preparing to enjoy the holiday season with their families.

As CT Dems Chair Nancy Wyman said earlier today, "Connecticut will forever bear the heartache of Sandy Hook."

Tonight, before you go to sleep, please join us in honoring those 26 lives by resolving to take action to prevent another tragedy in Connecticut.

Remembering is not enough. We must act.
