Matthew McConaughey urges Americans to find ‘common ground’ after school shooting in his Texas hometown leaves 21 dead

Matthew McConaughey urged Americans to “find a common ground” after at least 21 people, including 19 children, were killed in an elementary school shooting in his hometown of Uvalde, Texas, on Tuesday.

The Oscar-winning actor stressed the need to “renegotiate our wants from our needs” in order to find a solution to the gun violence issues that continue to devastate the United States.

“This is an epidemic we can control, and whichever side of the aisle we may stand on, we all know we can do better,” McConaughey wrote in a message shared on social media.
