Every day, lives are shattered by gun violence. It’s a crisis that affects all of us, regardless of where we live. Not only is it a public health crisis that kills more than 48,000 people every year in the US, but it also surpasses motor vehicle accidents as the leading cause of death among children and young people.
As the Trump administration continues to attack gun safety measures, it is critical that you reach out to your members of Congress, state legislators, and local elected officials to demand strong, sustained action against gun violence. We must stay engaged, make our voices heard, and hold our elected officials accountable.
Please urge your representatives to ban assault weapons, pass stronger background checks, and mandate safe gun storage – we can put an end to senseless gun violence once and for all. We did it before with the assault weapons ban, and we can do it again. By urging our state legislators to pass comprehensive gun safety laws, we can help prevent tragedies and create safer communities where no one has to be afraid to go to work or school, go to the movies, or live their daily lives.
Tell Your Representatives: Protect our communities and pass gun safety legislation.
