Rep. Gay Lynn Bennion, D-Cottonwood Heights, shares three things Utah can do to reduce gun violence in the state and writes that we cannot forget about the wounds, mental and physical, suffered by those who survive shootings.
Newly-added crosses bear the names of those killed in Tuesday's mass shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, on Thursday, May 26, 2022.

In 2019, I served as Utah’s Community Outreach Lead for Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense. Utah’s chapter of Moms was founded by Kait Hinkley-Wood and Carolyn Tuft, the sister and mother of Kirsten, who was fatally shot on a mother-daughter trip to purchase Valentines at Trolley Square in 2007. The shooter didn’t take her life, but he did take her health and her joy for creating art. She was unable to continue her business and lost her source of income and her home. Her children lost their vibrant, joyful mother as she fought to simply get out of bed each day with a body filled with lead pellets and lead poisoning, which is slowly killing her.
