I’m once again asking for your attention to this matter: How many tragic school shootings do we need to see in the news before we try something different?
We had ONE terrorist plot, and none of us can take a water bottle to the airport. We have hundreds of shootings each year, and inaction from our government.
Please enact basic gun reforms supported by Everytown and the 97 percent - which have bipartisan support:
1. Require universal background checks for all gun sales.
2. Close gun sale loopholes and require background checks on all commercial gun sales.
3. Remove the prohibition on gun violence research by the CDC.
4. Pass an Extreme Risk Protection Order Act, a “red flag” bill, to allow relatives and law enforcement to temporarily remove firearms from an individual in crisis
Children growing up today with regular active shooter drills will not continue to tolerate this status quo when they are of voting age. But how many needless deaths from our friends and family members will happen between now and then?
This issue affects every single one of us and cannot wait.
