Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., apologized after a video showed her throwing out a pin and a pamphlet memorializing a child killed in the Uvalde mass shooting.
In a video posted on Tuesday to Twitter, Boebert can be seen discarding the sneaker-shaped pin — a reference to the Converse sneakers 10-year-old Maite Rodriguez was wearing when she was fatally shot — as well as the supplementary information about Rodriguez seconds after being handed it by a group of gun-control activists.
