I am writing to express my strong support for House Bill 5010, "Recognizing Gun Violence as a Public Health Emergency Act." This crucial legislation acknowledges the devastating impact of gun violence on public health and emphasizes the necessity for comprehensive data analysis and reporting on this issue.
As a concerned citizen, I believe that understanding the multifaceted nature of gun violence, including its effects on fatalities, injuries, and the mental health of communities, is imperative for developing effective solutions. The annual report mandated by H.R. 5010, to be submitted by the Secretary of Health and Human Services in coordination with the CDC, represents a significant step towards addressing this crisis.
I urge you to support this bill and contribute to the efforts in creating a safer society by addressing gun violence as the public health emergency it truly is. Your leadership and commitment to this cause can make a substantial difference in the lives of countless Americans.
Thank you for considering my views on this important matter.
