Biden Urges Gun Control After Two Killed at Madison's Abundant Life Christian School
Dec 16, 2024, 11:00 PM
President Joe Biden has released a statement following a shooting at Abundant Life Christian School in Madison, Wisconsin, in which a teacher and a teenage student were killed. Calling the incident 'shocking and unconscionable,' Biden urged Congress to pass common-sense gun safety laws, including universal background checks, a national red flag law, and a ban on assault weapons and high-capacity magazines. 'We need Congress to act. Now,' he emphasized. The President added, 'It's unacceptable that we cannot protect our children from this scourge of gun violence.' The White House confirmed that the President has been briefed on the situation, and senior White House officials are in touch with local counterparts in Madison to offer federal support to the victims and families affected by the tragedy.
