US President Joe Biden landed in San Antonio, Texas.
With First Lady Jill, he boarded the presidential helicopter towards Uvalde without making any statements.
In the small town he will meet the families of the victims of the primary school massacres and the first responders.
Grieved by their losses, frustrated by the police response to the killer and impatient with a Washington that does not find a deal on weapons, the families of the victims are demanding action from Biden.
White House spokeswoman Karine Jean-Pierre explained in recent days that Biden will ask Congress to act.
The administration is in contact with Democrats in Congress who are negotiating with Republicans seeking a compromise on arms.
However, the White House does not want the president to be directly involved in the negotiations, fearing negative political implications.
Biden is already down in the polls and the issue of weapons is, by its very nature, very divisive.
