In this quote, David Hogg is criticizing Marco Rubio for not supporting stronger gun control legislation after the Parkland school shooting in Florida. Specifically, Hogg holds up a price tag showing that Rubio accepted $1.05 from the NRA for “every student’s life in Florida.” By this, Hogg means that Rubio received this amount in political donations from the NRA for each student at schools in Florida, implying that Rubio valued the NRA’s support more than protecting lives through gun law reforms.

The “price” referred to is the negligible monetary value Rubio allegedly placed on each child’s safety by not taking bolder action on gun violence prevention due to influence from the NRA’s campaign contributions. Overall, Hogg is condemning Rubio for what he views as putting politics and money ahead of children’s welfare on the issue of gun safety laws.
