Here's a look at this week in news:
Another mass shooting
Tuesday's shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas has the country in mourning after 19 children and two adults were reported dead. This comes after the Buffalo, New York shooting that claimed 10 lives. The tragedy has sparked discussions and debates around gun control across the county. In Florida, Democratic lawmakers say they want change.

Condo Safety
Florida lawmakers gave final approval Wednesday to a plan to bolster the safety of condominium buildings, after the devastating collapse last year of the Champlain Towers South building in Surfside. Also news, the bill was passed unanimously in the Florida Senate.
