Many are still puzzled about the next steps after the Las Vegas massacre. The shooting at Las Vegas resulted in nine Democratic candidates attending the Las Vegas shooting forum. They discussed gun control and the eXtra Pavilion, Caesars Forum. Here are the names and programs of the candidates. What can you expect at the forum? And who will be involved? These questions are answered in our answers section.
eXtra Pavilion at Caesars Forum
The eXtra Pavilion in Caesars Forum, during the 2019 SHOT Show is a perfect venue for networking, meeting new manufactures, discovering new products, or identifying business solutions. During the event the NSSF announces six new members of the Hall of Fame. The Hall of Fame award is a high-ranking honor given to industry leaders for their contributions. The SHOT Show will honor the new members of this hall. They were chosen by their peers.
The CAESARS FORUM, a 550,000-square-foot LEED-certified convention center, is located in the CAESARS FORUM. It is located adjacent to The LINQ Promenade and the High Roller Observation Wheel. Nearby, the Caesars Forum has easy access to more than 8,500 hotel rooms and is connected to Harrah's Las Vegas by a pedestrian bridge. It also features six state-ofthe-art boardrooms as well as two large, pillarless banquet rooms.
Program
After the Las Vegas massacre, several forums were held by the federal government to assist victims' families. In October, the Las Vegas shooting forum was held. Federal officials also plan to host similar forums in Anaheim as Ventura. A Ventura forum was set for December, but was canceled due to the Thomas Fire. Over 65 percent of attendees came from California, mainly Southern California. The Vegas Strong Resiliency Center sponsored it.
The March for Our Lives group, which advocates for stricter gun control laws, is planning an October forum. The program will likely feature interviews with candidates, as well as a question-and-answer session. A Democratic presidential candidate will also be invited to participate, as will presidential candidates. Additional logistics will be announced in the weeks leading up to the forum. The forum program is meant to promote policy discussions. However, the deadly shootings have turned into a political football sport.
Candidates
Tuesday's forum will feature Democratic presidential candidates discussing gun violence and the plans they have to reduce it. They also canvassed the media over the weekend to tout their plans for tighter gun control and to call upon the Republican-led Senate's return from summer recess. How do we respond to the latest tragedy in the most effective way? Here are some ideas. Let's not forget, our democracy is at high risk from an epidemic that we can't stop.
Political candidates will meet with survivors and activists to discuss suicide and gun violence. David Hogg, a survivor of both the Parkland shooting and March for Our Lives, organized the event. The event will feature ten Democratic presidential candidates and survivors of gun violence. Craig Melvin from MSNBC will moderate. Survivors of mass shootings should bring their views to the table.
