Uvalde shooting survivor testifies: "I don't want it to happen again"

• The students hid behind their teacher's desk and backpacks, Cerrillo said, and the gunman shot the window between the classrooms.
• "[He] told my teacher goodnight and shot her in the head" Cerillo said.
• "When I went to the backpacks, he shot my friend … I thought he was going to come back to the room, so I grabbed the blood and I put it all over me," she said.

Cerillo testified that she doesn't feel safe at school.

• "I don't want it to happen again," she said.

Miguel Cerrillo, Miah's father, also testified Wednesday, urging lawmakers for change in the wake of the deadly shooting.

• "I come because I could’ve lost my baby girl," Miguel said through tears. "She’s not the same little girl that I used to play with and run with and do everything, because she was daddy’s little girl."
• "I wish something would change. Not only for our kids, but every single kid in the world because schools are not safe anymore," he said.
• "Something needs to really change."
