March for Change, an outgrowth of CT Against Gun Violence, is taking its message to the state capitol on Valentine's Day, to present a unified voice to push legislators to enact changes to Connecticut gun laws.
The organization was a response to the Dec. 14, 2012, shooting at Sandy Hook School that claimed the life of 20 first graders and six educators.
March for Change members will be joined at the rally by state legislators, both Republicans and Democrats, including Gov. Dannel P. Malloy, and shooting victims' families, gun violence survivors and clergy. Standing with them will be another newly formed grassroots group, called The ENOUGH Campaign.
ENOUGH grew organically out of a number of moms near the tragedy in Newtown who decided that they needed to take immediate action and mobilize their networks of friends, families, coworkers and acquaintances, according to a release from the group.
The weather forecast is calling for a few inches of snow overnight Wednesday into Thursday, Feb. 14, but organizers say the march will go on as planned — and more than 4,000 people are expected to show up.
