    VP Harris campaigns to stop gun violence with Maryland Senate candidate Alsobrooks

    Vice President Kamala Harris said Friday that more must be done at the federal level to prevent gun violence during a campaign stop in Maryland to support Angela Alsobrooks, a Democrat whose U.S. Senate race could determine control of the chamber. Harris, speaking on the 10th annual National Gun Violence Awareness Day, marked the occasion by underscoring the need to pass more laws to stop gun violence. “Maryland, this November you have the power to elect a leader who has actually kept our community safe," Harris said of Alsobrooks, whose campaign is critical to Democrats maintaining Senate control.
