I saw them make the 160 mile drive from Uvalde to the state Capitol multiple times during that legislative session, demanding, begging for basic common sense gun safety.
They believed in the Second Amendment, just like I do.
But they knew that there needed to be some kind of regulation to keep everyone safe and protect everybody's freedoms, including the freedom of those 19 babies to live and fulfill their potential.
What I saw them do just over the course of one legislative session is move the needle

They convinced a lot of our fellow Christians that the most important issues were abortion and gay marriage.
Two issues that aren't mentioned in the Bible, two issues that Jesus never talked about,
Jesus in Matthew 25 tells us exactly how you and I and every one of our fellow believers, how we're gonna be judged and how we're gonna be saved.
By feeding the hungry, by healing the sick, by welcoming the stranger.
