Opening statement
In an era where we are all connected and can view all of the world's events through the news, we come to understand and draw upon opinions that could affect the laws in place. In 1990, Congress passes the Gun-Free School Zone Act, or GFSZA for short, to reduce violence on a national level. However, this sparked debates on whether or not such a umbrella law would impede on individual state's law making rights. Congress, however, has the power to create general laws (as such as the GFSZA) that is aimed at protecting students and teachers a like. [You will add a general list of what you would bring up to support it here.]

Closing statement
--You will restate the general reasonings here -- Schools are allowed to make it's own choices that guarantee the safety of the students and teachers that attend there alike. The GFSZA is the step in the right direction in guaranteeing such safety, and with adequate funding for the protection of students, it can lead to a secure place for people to learn. Congress, as such, has the power to pass the GFSZA.
