On this day the group will be joining the Peace March, led by students from St. Sabina Academy, and then traveling across the country to register others in preparation for mid-term elections.
The tour reportedly includes "more than 50 planned stops in over 20 states including Iowa, Texas, California, South Carolina, and Connecticut." Then, a separate tour will take place in Florida, where the group will make more than 25 stops and speak with every congressional district.

"We’re going to places where the NRA has bought and paid for politicians who refuse to take simple steps to save our lives — and we’ll be visiting a number of communities that have been affected by gun violence to meet fellow survivors and use our voices to amplify theirs," March For Our Lives noted on the site.
"At each stop, we’ll register young people to vote and educate them on the reforms we need to save lives, and whether their local candidates and elected officials support these reforms or support the NRA."
