Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School students returned to school on Wednesday, two weeks after a mass shooter killed seventeen people. Since that tragic event, a student-led movement has been rallying support for changes to gun laws.

Soto met with a group of student survivors on Capitol Hill Tuesday. Soto says these students feel unsafe in America's schools.
