President Trump asked members at his Mar-a-Lago Club about gun-control issues in the wake of the shooting at a nearby Florida high school, The Washington Post reported Sunday.
Trump during the holiday weekend reportedly asked the members about whether or not he should take an active stance on gun control laws. He also told them that he was closely watching the media appearances made by student survivors of the shooting, according to the Post.
Student survivors called on Trump and lawmakers to take action on gun control in the wake of the shooting that left 17 people dead. Several survivors made appearances on Sunday morning shows.
The White House announced Sunday that Trump will host a "listening session" with students to discuss school safety measures.
