The Hollywood actor Matthew McConaughey has made an impassioned plea for tougher gun controls after the shooting last month at an elementary school in his home town of Uvalde, Texas.
The Oscar-winning actor appeared at the White House yesterday to call on Congress to “reach a higher ground” in honour of the children and teachers who were killed in the massacre, and end the political gridlock over firearms legislation.
McConaughey, a gun owner himself, said the tragedy had provided a “window of opportunity” to introduce reforms such as stricter background checks on anyone trying to buy a gun and raising the minimum age at which one can purchase a semi-automatic rifle, from 18 to 21.
