I urge you to take action to reduce the epidemic of gun violence in the United States by ... • Closing the loophole that lets people buy guns at shows and through private sellers without background checks • Instituting universal background checks for ammo and gun buyers, a measure 80% of gun owners support • Funding evidence-based community anti-violence programs, like Ceasefire, which have been shown to reduce shootings • Reinstating a federal ban on the purchase of high-capacity magazines and military-style assault weapons, which is supported by at least 65% of Americans. Thank you for your time and attention.
