Please check against tape.

VP Kamala Harris  19:06:11
Thank you for that introduction for your leadership on so many levels for our great celebrations that are a multitude I have prepared comments about tonight because I was the first one. In Texas, as many of you know the report so that was a mass shooting elementary school and 14 children are coming in and of course the President is monitoring the situation.

19:07:04
While we don't know all the details, we lost children, families and many others. So I would normally say in my case, we would all say naturally that our hearts break

19:07:29
but our hearts keep getting broken you know, I think so many is so many elected leaders in this room we're not talking about

19:07:48
in our token price have nothing yet it keeps so, I think we all know that many times where each other enough. Enough is enough. As a nation we have to have the courage to take action. Understand the nexus between what makes reasonable and sensible public policy. One for something I've just never happened but the President will speak more about this later. Just to the people that are involved. Please note that this is a room full of leaders agreed and we are praying for you and we stand with you. And it is difficult at a time like this to think about much else. But I do look around this room and I know who's here. I know this is a room full of American leaders who know and have the courage to take a stand. So let us tonight as we do every time we all get together, recommit ourselves to having the courage to take action.
