Gun Violence in Virginia, Teenage Voters, and Remembering Congressman McEachin
IN THE NEWS:
The death of Aston Donald McEachin. The late congressman served four terms in the House of Delegates, two terms in the state Senate and three terms in Congress. He was just elected last month to what would have been his fourth term. Now people across Virginia are remembering a man who was a lawyer who also had a master of divinity from Virginia Union University.
Teenage Voters: Back in the 1960s during the Vietnam War, advocates for changing the voting age from 21 to 18 adopted the slogan "old enough to fight, old enough to vote." Now advocates might be adopting a twist on that: Old enough to drive, old enough to vote. Elijah Lee is a 14-year-old activist who wants to vote in local elections when he turns 16.
More tragic gun violence in Virginia after a shooting at a Wal-Mart in Chesapeake killed six people. Thomas and Michael discuss the state of gun control in Virginia and difficulty of achieving much progress under the current administration.
At the Watercooler: Republican Delegate Tim Anderson seeks to repeal Virginia's anti-gay constitutional amendment.
