March Fourth to end gun violence, at US Capitol

Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) speaks at a rally and march against gun violence at the US Capitol. Demonstrators - including families and survivors of the Uvalde and Highland Park shootings - are demanding a ban on assault weapons and universal background checks for gun purchases. Both of these measures are favored by large majorities of Americans but were excluded from the recent gun legislation. The rally takes place on the heels of yet another high-fatality mass shooting, this time at an Independence Day parade in Highland Park, IL. (Photo by Allison Bailey/NurPhoto)
