In the wake of the tragic school shooting in South texas, which cost the lives of 21 students, Texas Democratic Party Chairman Gilberto Hinojosa has issued a call for a special session of the State legislature to ban assault rifles.
Hinojosa release the following statement on the Democratic party's website:
“Not one more child. Not one more teacher. Not one more Texan. We’re proud of our Democratic Leaders for standing up to Greg Abbott’s lies every chance they get, and the Texas Democratic Party joins their call for a special session to ban assault weapons and pass life-saving legislation to end gun violence in Texas.”

Democratic gubernatorial candidate Beto O'Rourke interrupted a news conference being held by Gov. Greg Abbott, Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick and other officials to demand "action."
