Education Week: Arne Duncan Calls for Tighter Gun Control In Wake of Newtown Shootings

Washington

In his first public appearance since the tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Conn., U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan called on the nation to tighten gun control laws, improve access to mental health, and curb the glorification of violence in movies and video games.

“Are we doing enough to keep children safe from harm? I don’t think so, and neither does President Obama,” Duncan said in remarks at Neval Thomas Elementary School in Washington.
