Hundreds of thousands of people marched on Washington and around the country to demand stricter gun control this weekend.
But that鈥檚 just the first step, David Hogg, a survivor of the February Parkland, Florida school shooting, told 禁漫天堂 Monday.
The students are already planning another school walkout on April 20, and on April 7, they鈥檙e calling for every member of Congress to hold a town hall.
鈥淚f your local legislator refuses to come for whatever reason, simply invite their opponent,鈥� Hogg told us. 鈥淚t鈥檚 as simple as that.鈥�
The students-turned-activists have set up a website, , to organize the effort.
That electoral activism is where it鈥檚 really going to make a difference, according to Lois Beckett, a reporter for The Guardian who covers gun policy. In 1999, the Million Mom March brought hundreds of thousands of people to Washington, but didn鈥檛 make a difference in the elections.
鈥淲hat really matters is what happens in the 2018 midterms,鈥� Beckett said. 鈥淚f pro-gun lawmakers are voted out because of the actions of students then this march will have made a big difference.鈥�
