Kane County Democrats announced, “In light of the mass shooting in Highland Park, we are once again called to join in solidarity. Join us at the Kane County Courthouse, 100 S 3rd Street, in Downtown Geneva from 8 p.m. to 9 p.m. Wednesday, July 6, for a candlelight vigil with speakers, including elected officials, candidates, and activists.
“This gun violence has to stop, and we cannot keep saying ‘it can’t happen here’ because Highland Park is just a drive away and what happened there (a shooting from a rooftop at an Independence Day parade Monday, July 4) can happen here. We need change and to make our voices heard. Enough is enough.”
