The final night of the Democratic National Convention will feature the testimony of gun violence victims and activists seeking more gun-control measures.

Before Vice President Kamala Harris takes the stage, former Arizona Rep. Gabby Giffords, who was shot in the head during a campaign event in 2011, Rep. Lucy McBath (D-GA), who lost her son in 2012 to gun violence, and the “Tennessee Three,” a group of state lawmakers who were expelled from the Tennessee legislature for leading a protest against gun violence following the 2023 Covenant school shooting, will all be speaking at the DNC on Thursday.
