Survivors of last week's Florida high school massacre have announced a march on Washington and other major U.S. cities next month to demand tangible action so to prevent future school shootings.

"We are going to be marching together as students, begging for our lives," student Cameron Kasey told ABC television's This Week broadcast Sunday. "This has happened before and change hasn't come. This is it."

Kasey said one of the reasons for the march is to pin "a badge of shame" on any politician who is accepting money from the National Rifle Association. She said the NRA is promoting a gun culture that leads to such horrors.

Another student, Emma Gonzalez, told ABC that President Donald Trump, Florida Senator Marco Rubio, and Governor Rick Scott all have NRA support. She said students "want to give them the opportunity to be on the right side of this."
