Bucks County Students To 'March For Our Lives' This Month

Students across Bucks County will be participating in a March for Our Lives demonstration on March 24 in Doylestown.

"The March for Our Lives Doylestown is a student-led, peaceful demonstration to unite our community to reduce gun violence and to center student voices for safety in our schools and communities. We will join together on March 24, as youth and allies in a symbolical march led by students, from a public high school to the seat of county government, with a clear and resounding message that, we have had ENOUGH," according to a press release from organizers.

Students marching say they're pushing for common sense gun laws and policies.

The March for Our Lives Doylestown will begin at Central Bucks High School West at noon. The march will go through Doylestown to the old Bucks County Courthouse, where a student-led rally will take place.

The rally will consist of student speakers, voter registration, slam poetry, chants and more.

The March for Our Lives Doylestown is organized by Bucks Students Demand Action, a newly formed, student-centered group of students from all across Bucks County.

More than 15 students are leading the group. Leaders have met with their school administrators, Congressman Fitzpatrick and have joined other gun violence prevention student advocates on delivering letters to State Senator McIllhinney and Rep. Quinn, according to organizers.
