Harris takes aim at JD Vance for saying school shootings are “a fact of life”
This week’s mass shooting at a Georgia high school brought the issue of gun violence back to the fore ahead of November’s 2024 presidential election.
The big picture: Vice President Kamala Harris and Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) made clear in comments Thursday they have very different ideas in how to respond to gun violence in the wake of the Apalachee High School shooting that killed four people and injured nine others.
Driving the news: A CNN reporter asked Vance at a Phoenix, Arizona, event what his policies were on ending school shootings after this week’s massacre, which saw a 14-year-old student charged with four counts of felony murder and his father facing charges including second-degree murder.
