Linn-Mar High and other Iowa students marched to City Square Park calling for common sense gun laws two months after Parkland and thirteen months after Columbine. The event drew speakers including Moms Demand Action and Diamond Purchase, with die-ins in Marion and at the University of Iowa. Administrators noted unexcused absences while lawmakers weighed school safety funding and drills.
