President Biden and first lady Jill Biden will travel on Sunday to the scene of a mass shooting at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas, the White House said.

The Bidens will “grieve with the community that lost twenty-one lives in the horrific elementary school shooting,” the statement said. 

The 18-year-old gunman who committed the massacre was shot and killed by a law enforcement officer. The shooting has renewed calls in Congress, and by the president, for stricter gun laws.
