7:00pm Meet & Greet with State Sen. Candidate Steven Hall

“I think the children’s crusade that is beginning is going to put real pressure on Congress to do things that are meaningful. I don’t think this is going away this year. I think it’s only going to intensify. I think they’re trying to get away with the lowest common denominator but not dealing with the real issues that need to be put in place in order to provide real gun safety.”

Congressman Ed Markey

Speaking about new gun safety legislation from the Boston police headquarters.
