‘Infuriating and horrific’: Sandy Hook parents lambast gun violence inaction

Nicole Hockley and Mark Barden founded Sandy Hook Promise, a non-profit organization to protect kids from gun violence

The parents of children who died in the 2012 Sandy Hook school shooting - the deadliest school shooting in US history that left 26 people dead, 20 of whom were children under the age of eight - on Thursday spoke out against inaction on gun violence after a mass shooting at Robb elementary in Uvalde, Texas, this week.

In the wake of the tragedy that killed their children, Nicole Hockley and Mark Barden co-founded Sandy Hook Promise, a non-profit organization dedicated to protecting American children from gun violence.
