Actor Matthew McConaughey, who was born in Uvalde, Texas, spoke out Tuesday on an elementary school shooting in his hometown that killed two teachers and 19 children.
In a statement, McConaughey offered his condolences to the families affected by the tragedy and urged Americans to take action "so that no parent has to experience what parents in Uvalde and the others before them have endured." On Tuesday, a gunman barricaded himself inside and opened fire on a fourth-grade classroom at Robb Elementary School.
"As you are all aware there was another mass shooting today, this time in my hometown of Uvalde, Texas," McConaughey wrote in a message posted on social media.
