A student who survived Wednesday's mass shooting at a Florida high school is pleading with Congress to take action to prevent another mass shooting.
"Please, this is the 18th one this year. That's unacceptable. We're children. You guys are the adults," David Hogg said during an interview on CNN.
"You need to take some action and play a role. Work together, come over your politics and get something done."
Hogg said that the fact that there have been so many school shootings "is a testament to where this country has come."
