US President promises to 'do something' about gun reform

From Midday Report, 12:10 pm on 30 May 2022

After being confronted with chants of 'Do Something' on a visit to a grieving city in Texas, the US president Joe Biden has vowed he will.

He's been in Uvalde to grieve with some of the families of the 19 children and two teachers killed in a mass shooting at a primary school last week.

President Biden wants to confront the incredibly wealthy and influential American gun lobby - but that may be easier said than done.
