WASHINGTON (AP) — Jill Biden on Thursday declared that “enough is enough” as she did her part to encourage school leaders to promote storing firearms safely to help protect children.
Guns are the leading cause of death for American children.
A new initiative was announced at a White House event for school principals with the first lady and Education Secretary Miguel Cardona. Stefanie Feldman and Greg Jackson, both of the recently established White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention, also participated.
Biden, who teaches English at a Virginia community college, told the principals that parents trust them, and she encouraged them to be part of the solution.
