Friend,

One in five Americans have lost a family member to gun violence. You read that correctly: one out of every five people in this country.

We cannot keep living like this. We cannot continue to let gun violence continue to tear apart communities like Nashville, Louisville, and Dadeville. We must keep fighting to pass more meaningful gun safety reform to finally end gun violence. If you're with me, sign your name now to help end gun violence.

Here's another heartbreaking statistic: Gun violence has become the leading cause of death for people under age 20.

Every single one of those deaths is preventable. But the GOP refuses to act. A Republican lawmaker summed up his entire party's response: "We're not going to fix it." (Yes, he really said that.)

As Republicans continue their unforgivable inaction, we can't let ourselves become numb. I'm proud that our Democratic Majority passed the first major gun safety bill in decades last year, but that was just the first step. We need to keep working to end gun violence once and for all.

Join me and demand better for our children and the countless Americans impacted by gun violence every day. Sign your name now to end gun violence.

Onward,

Chuck Schumer
