Illinois Gov.Pat Quinn and Senate President John Cullerton are promising support for an effort to curb gun violence.
On Sunday, about 400 people packed into the Chicago Sinai Congregation to hear a host of speakers. Some, like Quinn, Cullerton and U.S. Rep Jan Schakowski are promising to help find organizations and companies that might help convince manufacturers to do things like work to prevent criminals and people with a history of gun violence and others from getting their hands on guns.
Others told emotional stories of losing loved ones to guns violence or being shot themselves.
