Actor Matthew McConaughey made an emotional comment during Tuesday’s press conference at the White House, and passionately called for action on gun control following a mass shooting at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas.
“We are in a window of opportunity that we have not been before,” said the UValde native. “It looks like a real change, a real change can happen.”
McConaughey also highlighted the lives lost in the mass shooting, which killed 19 students and two teachers on May 24, 2022, a violent attack that has put the spotlight on the outbreak of armed violence affecting America.
“Where do we start?” McConaughey asked, “Let’s start by making the loss of these lives matter.”
