Parkland shooting survivor David Hogg is calling for a renewed boycott of Fox News host Laura Ingraham. 

"So @IngrahamAngle we meet again. Who are you biggest advertisers now?" Hogg tweeted on Tuesday. 

The call for action comes after Ingraham downplayed how the Trump administration's enforcement of a "zero-tolerance" policy was impacting children attempting to cross the US-Mexico border. As many criticized child detention centers as abusive, Ingraham said during her show on Monday night that the children were being "temporarily housed in what are essentially summer camps." 

Ingraham's comments sparked outrage online. 

"If we get these advertisers pulled maybe @Ingraham will have to become a camp counselor and learn how wrong she is," Hogg tweeted on Tuesday morning, naming brands including Ace Hardware, John Deere, and Sirius XM. 

Hogg had previously called for a boycott of Ingraham's advertisers after the host mocked Hogg by saying he "whines" about college rejections. More than a dozen brands announced that they would cut advertising following Hogg's call for action. 

Here are the brands Hogg has targeted in the new boycott:
