John, on Tuesday I asked you to sign on as a citizen co-sponsor of the discharge petitions that would force a vote on gun safety legislation in Congress. Today, the conservative website Breitbart put out an article accusing us of circumventing GOP leadership to bring my legislation to the House floor.
Well, if GOP leadership refuses to act time and time again after our children are gunned down in schools and in the streets, then why should we let them stand in our way of passing gun safety measures?
Almost 90% of Americans support legislation like this - so why do Republicans refuse to bring it to a vote?
I’m proud to be leading the movement to end gun violence in Congress – and it’s made me the target of far-right outlets like Breitbart. Can you donate to my campaign today to help ensure that I can keep doing this work in the years to come? [[link removed]]
DONATE NOW [[link removed]] When I reached out asking for signatures in support of the discharge petitions, I was overwhelmed by the response we got, John. In addition to all the people who signed our grassroots petition, many folks have reached out to me with their own personal stories and words of support.
I’m working as hard as possible to get signatures on our discharge petitions so our bills can make it to the House floor, and I won’t let attacks from Republicans slow me down. I couldn’t do this without grassroots support from the members of our movement to end gun violence – can you show you’re with me by chipping in to my campaign right now? [[link removed]]

John,
Today marks a major moment in our fight to end gun violence. I’m leading an effort with other House Democrats to gather signatures for discharge petitions that would force a vote in the House on three different gun control bills.
John , this doesn’t happen often. We’re working on these discharge petitions because our nation is in crisis.
I’ve pushed for gun safety reform since my son Jordan was shot and killed in 2012. Our policies on guns failed my son and the many, many others that become victims of shootings every year – and we’re on pace for a record number of mass shootings in 2023.
John, I’ve had enough. My GOP colleagues have blocked all of our attempts to enact common-sense laws that would curb the epidemic of gun violence, so it’s time to force their hand. Will you join this effort by adding your name as a citizen co-sponsor to my petition? [[link removed]]

The discharge petitions we’re introducing would ban AR-15 style firearms, expand background checks, and would close the Charleston loophole. These measures will save lives and make our communities safer. Though we hear the news about shooting after shooting, these senseless acts of gun violence seem to fall on deaf ears for my colleagues on the other side of the aisle. Their thoughts and prayers are meaningless without substantive action. By forcing this legislation to a vote, we’re hoping that enough Republicans will recognize that urgent action is needed to stop the carnage. Will you add your name to our petition to make yourself a citizen co-sponsor of our legislation for gun safety reform?

Thank you for taking action,
Lucy McBath
