"Instead of worrying about taking a test, I started worrying about living... They say schools are for learning, and I did learn a lot that day. I learned how to run, how to hide and drop. But I learned something else, too. That we can and must write a new story." - Edgar Vilchez, Illinois school shooting survivor, shares his survivor story at the #DNC2024

Look! It’s @saferca board member Mia on the #DNC. Together we will #EndGunViolence #Enough

During his stint as Mayor of San Diego, Faulconer refused to meet with gun violence prevent groups or even acknowledge gun violence- With the exception of a press stunt at the Tree of Life vigil. Terra has a track record of innovative GVP policies and working with GVP groups.

Kevin Faulconer's disastrous Ash St debacle cost taxpayers $264M dollars -- enough $ to get every unhoused person off our streets & into shelters & treatment. His mismanagement & neglect as Mayor created the homelessness crisis that I've spent the past 3 years trying to clean up

Welcome to Kamala HQ. This is the official rapid response page of Vice President Harris’ presidential campaign.

On behalf of the American people, I thank Joe Biden for his extraordinary leadership as President of the United States and for his decades of service to our country. I am honored to have the President’s endorsement and my intention is to earn and win this nomination.

Political violence and gun violence are not acceptable in our society. The attack on the former president’s campaign rally could have been much worse had the Secretary Service not responded promptly. Safer CA wishes a swift recovery to those affected by this heinous incident.

Safer California is excited to endorse @FrancesMarquez6 for Orange County Supervisor! Frances has dedicated her life to working in public service and has a wealth of experience to support policies that improve her community and create a Safer Orange County.

NEW — A landmark Advisory just released by the @Surgeon_General declaring Firearm Violence as a Public Health Crisis! @ThisIsOurLane surgeongeneral.gov/firearm-v…

BREAKING: @Surgeon_General Vivek Murphy declares gun violence a public health crisis in new adisory. Health care professionals and the #ThisIsOurLane movement have called for such monumental action for years. #EndGunViolence kffhealthnews.org/news/artic…

Thank you @JosephSakran @ThisIsOurLane and all who have fought for this important declaration.

From Orlando, Las Vegas, Parkland, and El Paso to Atlanta, Buffalo, and Uvalde, I hear the same message from survivors: 'Do something.' Two years ago when I signed the Bipartisan Safer Communities Law, we did. Now, let's find the strength to finish what we started.

.@Surgeon_General is correct: When gun violence is the leading cause of death for children and teens in America, it must be declared a public health crisis and treated as such. We thank Dr. Vivek Murthy for this historic step toward ending gun violence. cnn.com/2024/06/25/health/su…

Kristin Song is headed back to DC to fight for Ethan’s Law. Call your Members of Congress (202) 224-3121 and urge them to cosponsor Ethan’s Law to #KeepKidsSafe. #EndGunViolence

In the US, 4.6 million children live in homes with access to an unlocked or unsupervised firearm. This #ASKDay with @BradyBuzz, I’m urging parents and caretakers to ask whether there is an unlocked gun where your child plays. Asking can save lives.

Now the ATF should finish the job and close the Dating Partner loophole once and for all. Here’s how 👉 thebackgroundcheck.substack.…

A reminder as we wait for SCOTUS to deliver its opinion in United States v. Rahimi—a case that will determine whether governments can continue to prevent domestic abusers from possessing firearms—that women’s bodies are more regulated than guns in America. Nearly 18 months ago, the 5th Circuit, which presides over federal lawsuits in Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas, vacated a 1996 law prohibiting anyone under a civil domestic violence restraining order from possessing a gun. As a result, those federal protections have not been enforced in those three states ever since—a death sentence for women and children. This case never should have even made it to SCOTUS in the first place. Not only is the 5th Circuit ruling absurd, but the defendant—Rahimi—is a violent criminal. He once fired a shot at someone who saw him shove his girlfriend in a parking lot, and then threatened to shoot his girlfriend if she told anyone; he fired an AR-15 into the home of someone who posted about him online; he shot at a driver after a car accident; he shot at a truck that flashed its lights at him on the highway; and he shot his gun into the air after his friend’s credit card was declined at a Whataburger. THIS is who extremists want to arm. And yet: * Nearly two-thirds of domestic homicides in the US are committed with a gun * Over 70 women are shot and killed by an intimate partner each month * Up to 20 percent of violent deaths of intimate partners also involve deaths of children or other family members * Homicide is the leading cause of maternal death in the US, most of it with firearms We can’t elect SCOTUS justices, but we can elect a President and Congress that will check its worst decisions. If you are watching these rulings—like unbanning bump stocks—in dismay and wondering what you can do, remember the best way to combat SCOTUS overreach is to vote in November for Democrats who will work to prevent gun violence and fight for democracy.
