A Georgia Democratic lawmaker is pushing for stricter gun safety laws to stem a tide of violence like the mass shooting last September at a high school northeast of Atlanta.

An Apalachee High School student is urging lawmakers to consider the issue of firearm access in their talks about improving school safety in the aftermath of the deadly shooting in Winder, Georgia, five months ago.

The fact that a 14-year-old got his hands on a gun and killed four people inside her daughter’s high school, shows parent Dina Valladares that legislation requiring guns be stored securely if a minor is in the home is critical.
