Listen: Joe Biden Reads Letters About Gun Violence From Philly 3rd Graders


Vice-President Joe Biden recently received a set of letters from a classroom of third-graders from North Philadelphia. The topic was gun violence. Today, the White House released audio of Biden reading excerpts from the letters. Here is a sampling:

“Camilla says, ‘I want to discuss with you why you want to stop gun violence. I think it’s because you want less people passing away.'”

“Ishmael says, ‘I heard you take care of gun violence. Maybe no guns at all, but the police can get safety guns. That will change the world.”

“Jacob: ‘You can go out on the stage and just say, I want to stop using guns.'”
