The spike in gun violence was also in the spotlight at Sunday's Democratic Debate.
Michigan is in the national spotlight after six people were killed in a shooting rampage in Kalamazoo last month. Two others are still in the hospital after getting shot.
Last night, the father of 14-year old shooting victim, Abigail Kopf, demanded answers.
The father of the teen shooting victim wanted to know where the democratic candidates stood when it comes to gun control. Gene Kopf is looking for answers after his daughter Abigail nearly died.
She was shot in the head during last month's shooting rampage. Abigail was the sole survivor out of a group of women gunned down in the parking lot of a Cracker Barrel in Kalamazoo.
Doctors thought Abigail had actually died that night, but as plans were being made to prepare her body for organ donation, she squeezed her mother's hand, letting her know she was still here.
The teen is now awake, breathing on her own and even taking steps.
At last night's debate, her father wanted a straight forward answer about gun control from candidates Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton.
"What do you plan to do to address this serious epidemic?" says Kopf, "I don't want to hear anything about tougher laws for mental health or criminal background, because that doesn't work."
Here is part of Clinton's response:
"I think we have to try everything that works to try to limit the number of people and the kinds of people who are given access to firearms," she says.
Bernie Sanders said in part:
"Let's be honest, nobody has a magic solution to this problem," he says, "any lunatic tomorrow, any person could walk into a theater and do something horrific."
Kopf told the NBC affiliate in Grand Rapids that neither candidate is really addressing the culture of gun violence.
The man accused in the Kalamazoo shooting spree, Jason Dalton, had no history of mental health issues or a criminal record. He owned the gun legally.
