[Jimmy Fallon](http://time.com/5104113/jimmy-fallon-donald-trump-james-taylor-parody/) has officially pledged to join the survivors of the [Marjory Stoneman Douglas High shooting](http://time.com/5159944/nikolas-cruz-charged-17-counts-murder-florida-school-shooting/) in marching for [increased gun control](http://time.com/5174165/colleges-gun-control-protests-admission/) next month. During Monday’s episode of _The Tonight Show_—the first since the Valentine’s Day massacre—the host spoke about how moved he has been by the Parkland students’ actions in the wake of tragedy while wearing a red ribbon lapel pin.

“What they had to live through, and what they have to live with, is something that I can’t even imagine,” he said. “And I think what the students of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School are doing is unbelievable. They’re speaking out with more guts, passion, conviction and common sense than most adults. They’re high school students, it’s beyond impressive. That strength that they have is inspiring.”

Fallon then vowed to walk alongside the students on March 24 in Washington D.C. at the [March for Our Lives](http://time.com/5167102/march-for-our-lives-parkland-school-shooting-protest/), a peaceful protest to demand action to prevent gun violence.

Watch the clip below.


## Transcript

People are gonna keep saying, this is just another shooting. It's never gonna happen to me. But what happens is when you don't take action, things like this eventually will happen to you. And that's not acceptable, and that's why I call on people to stand up. Talk to their Congressman, talk to people, and don't stop fighting. Because children will Continue to die if we don't take a stand now. What we really need is action. Because we can say yes, we're gonna do all these things, thoughts and prayers. What we need more than that is action. Please, this is the 18th one this year. That is unacceptable.

We're children. You guys are the adults. You need to take some action and play a role. Work together, come over your politics and get something done.
