Hundreds of protesters gathered Monday night in front of the National Rifle Association’s headquarters in Fairfax County to demand stronger gun laws. The Northern Virginia chapters of Brady and March for Our Lives organized the “Vigil for Remembrance and Change” in response to this weekend’s mass shootings in El Paso, Texas and Dayton, Ohio.
Protesters honored the victims before criticizing the NRA and Republicans in the Senate who’ve failed to consider gun reform legislation passed by the Democratic-controlled House.
