WASHINGTON – Sen. Bill Nelson has postponed a west coast fundraising swing this week due to the Parkland shooting.

He was scheduled to attend various events, including one Wednesday at the San Francisco home of Tom Steyer, the wealthy environmentalist who is trying to foment public demand for impeaching the president. Al Gore was to headline the event, according to an invite.

On Wednesday, Nelson will participate in a CNN town hall on the mass shooting.
