‘Enough is enough,’ US Vice-President Kamala Harris said, adding that the US has to tighten gun rules. “Parents who have lost children are mourning tonight in Uvalde, Texas. Families that have experienced a loss. There have also been numerous injuries. We must have the courage as a nation to act and prevent this from occurring again “She expressed herself on Twitter.

She emphasised this during an event, saying: “Enough already! To ensure that something like this never happens again, we must have the confidence to act and comprehend the nexus between what constitutes reasonable and pragmatic public policy.”

Biden speaks to the nation about the Texas tragedy, saying, “It’s time to stand up to the gun lobby.”
In his remarks to the nation following the tragic school shooting, Biden stated that such mass shootings are unusual elsewhere in the world and that now is the time to confront the gun lobby. “Mass shootings like these are quite rare in other parts of the world. Why are we willing to put up with this? Why do we continue to allow this to happen? Where in the name of God do we find the courage to confront it? He stated, “It’s time to transform this pain into action.”
“Tonight, there are parents who will never see their kid again,” the US president continued.

Parents who are never going to be the same. Losing a child is like losing a piece of your soul for good. I implore the people to pray for them, to give them courage in the face of adversity.”
“As a country, when will we stand up to the gun lobby in God’s name?” When will we, in God’s name, do what needs to be done? It irritates me to no end. “We must take action,” he continued.

Barack Obama: It’s past time for action.

Former US President Barack Obama also stated that action against the gun lobby was necessary. He added in a series of tweets: “Michelle and I are heartbroken for the families in Uvalde who are going through grief that no one should have to go through. We’re also furious with them. Our society is frozen, not by fear, but by a gun lobby and a political party that have demonstrated no desire to act in any way that would assist prevent these tragedies nearly ten years after Sandy Hook—and ten days after Buffalo.” “Action, any form of action, is long overdue. And waiting another day is another tragedy—a quieter but no less devastating one—for families “Obama stated this.

Pope Francis expressed his “heartbreak” over the Texas school shooting. He prayed for the children and adults who had died in the tragic shooting. He stated that it was past time to end indiscriminate arms trafficking.
The United Nations Secretary-General expresses his sympathy.
The UN Secretary-General expressed his sympathies to the victims’ families, expressing his shock and sadness at the terrible mass killing at a Texas elementary school. “It’s especially heartbreaking because the majority of the victims are youngsters,” he remarked.

Governor Abbott remarked in a tweet, “Texans are mourning the victims of this terrible tragedy as well as the Uvalde community. Cecilia and I are devastated by this tragedy and urge all Texans to band together. I’ve directed @TxDPS and Texas Rangers to fully investigate this crime in collaboration with local law enforcement.”
