After the Memorial Ceremony in Maryland, the governor delivered a speech. They stated that the mass shooting tragedy reminded them of the ample amount of work that needs to be done to provide a gun violence-free community.
They also added in their statement the assurance of protecting its citizens from mass shootings.
Anne Arundel County Executive, Steuart Pittman, attended the memorial ceremony and noted a variety of local initiatives to help stop gun violence in recent years, including a gun violence intervention team and free gun locks distribution, in an interview.
Due to the lack of gun violence initiatives, Pittman stated that they need the assault weapon ban back as it worked 10 years ago.
