Thoughts and Prayers

March For Our Lives

After one of the deadliest school shootings in US history, the students of Parkland organized one of the biggest student-led protests since Vietnam. But 4 years passed, shootings still happened and all they ever got were empty promises and plenty of “Thoughts and Prayers”.

What they needed to do was something Congress couldn’t ignore.

Our goal on social:

  1. Go viral.

  2. Use that virality to get people to go to MarchForOurLives.com and sign a petition demanding Senator Schumer to bring universal background checks to the Senate floor.
