“It has been just 20 days since the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida; but when you spend those days going to funerals and memorial services and vigils, and when you spend those days meeting with grieving parents who don't know what life is without their loved one, and when you spend those days demanding that this House take action, it feels a lot longer. Life moves on, new headlines fight to push our pain aside. One Parkland student, starting her first full week back at Marjory Stoneman Douglas since the shooting, said this on Twitter: ``There are no media trucks in sight. Don't forget about Parkland.'' Mr. Speaker, the fight is not over. Mr. Speaker, this Congress cannot and will not just move on from this tragedy. The Nation will not forget Parkland, because this time, we join with the Marjory Stoneman Douglas students in declaring: ``Never again.'' ____________________”
