The Uvalde parents are not going away—and some Texas Republicans are starting to see them.
They’re moving the needle. The conversation is different. It’s not just that we’re talking about them a year later; it’s that we’retalking about them a year later. We never stopped. And that’s never happened previously with a mass shooting in the state. That didn’t happen with the El Paso shooting at the Walmart. That didn’t happen after the Santa Fe shooting or
. I don’t think that’s going to happen with the shooting in Allen, Texas. But Texans have never stopped talking about Uvalde.I was listening to one of the mothers testifying before a Texas House committee, and she had driven all the way from Uvalde to Austin, which is three hours at least, to show up for a hearing at the Capitol at 8 a.m. She didn’t get to testify until 13 hours later. These families have been jerked around by the legislative process in a way that’s pretty shameful.
